JS litho ink in 100ml tube

The secret of our ink lies in the special care paid in cooking a strong, adhesive binder, the most difficult aspect of manufacturing ink. When mixed with pigment, the vehicle offers a balanced water/ink relationship that does not produce an emulsion. Lithographic grounds are common to the manufacturing of all types of oil-based inks. Our binder is based on natural oils: oil, linen and soy, mixed with modern resins. The cooking temperatures of the oils oscillate between 200 and 300 degrees. A weak varnish necessitates one hour of cooking, while a strong varnish requires three. We have succeeded in reducing the part of the hydrogen carbons in half, thus also helping to preserve the environment.
