Why is the Domino 2YL912 yellow ink considered a major industry breakthrough?

Yellow pigmented inks in CIJ systems have historically been prone to reliability issues and settling. The 2YL912 overcomes these hurdles, delivering outstanding line reliability and high-contrast performance previously unachievable in the coding industry.

What are the recommended packaging substrates and target industries for this ink?

The ink provides superior adhesion on challenging plastics like HDPE and LDPE, as well as dark glass. It is predominantly used in the personal care, cosmetics, food, beverage, and industrial manufacturing sectors for high-contrast coding on dark or black surfaces.

What are the shelf life and operational temperature limits for Domino 2YL912 yellow ink?

Domino 2YL912 offers a standard shelf life of 12 months. It features excellent thermal stability on the line, maintaining optimal consistency and print quality across a broad operating temperature range of 5°C to 45°C.

New Yellow Ink from Domino Delivers Industry Best Performance

Domino Printing Sciences has launched a new yellow ink for its world leading, easy-to-use, A-Series range of CIJ (continuous ink jet) printers. Providing outstanding performance and a level of reliability that has previously been unachievable from a yellow ink in the industry as a whole, the 2YL912 is ideal for a wide range of challenging applications across a variety of sectors, and remains highly reliable even at elevated temperatures of up to 45°C.

“Our new ink provides superior performance on a wide range of substrates including HDPE and LDPE,” comments Nick Plaister, Product Manager for CIJ at Domino. “Everyone knows that yellow ink in CIJ can be problematic, but we have used our knowledge and developed this new addition as a simple solution for coding onto dark or black surfaces. We expect it to be predominantly useful for personal care, food & beverage - where dark labels or glass are being used - as well as some industrial applications. With a 12 month shelf life, and operating in the temperature range 5 – 45°C, we anticipate excellent feedback from the market, and look forward to rolling this out across Europe over the coming months.”
