Roland’s fluorescent colours are ideal for sportswear
New ink enables digital production of on-trend sportswear.
‘Demand for fluorescent inks has been increasing in fashion and sportswear,’ said Mark Elvidge, business development manager, Roland DG UK. ‘Fluorescent colours are hugely fashionable, with more sports teams utilising them in 2016 to provide eye catching sportswear. With a huge year of sport coming up, many suppliers and designers will be wanting to capitalise on this with their offerings.’
The Texart fluor inks, available in yellow (Fy) and pink (Fp), can produce vivid output which standard process colours alone are not able to achieve. To maximise the colour gamut, a CMYKOrVi (orange & violet) +FyFp 8-colour ink configuration has been produced for use with the XT-640 and RT-640.
To simplify the inks’ use, Roland DG has created the Fluor Color Library, compatible with both CorelDraw and Adobe Illustrator. They are also supported by Roland ErgoSoft Edition, the RIP software included with the Texart range. The new ink is available in 1L pouches.
