Flexographic UV Ink For Washing Cloth Label
Washable flexographic UV inks for fabric labels are designed to address the core pain points of fabric label printing: resistance to repeated washing, color retention, and high-speed production efficiency. Specifically designed for flexographic printing presses, they deliver clear and durable prints on woven/nonwoven labels even after more than 50 machine wash cycles.

Product Introduction
1. Superior Wash Resistance – Key to Fabric Labels
Tested to withstand over 50 standard wash cycles (60℃, 30 minutes, with detergent) without fading, peeling, or blurring.
Resistant to soap, bleach, and fabric softener; ink film remains intact on cotton, polyester, nylon, and blended fabrics.
No color migration – suitable for light-colored clothing and infant clothing labels.
2. Fast Curing, Efficient Production
Cures in 2-5 seconds under 365-395nm UV-LED light (energy density 60-100mJ/cm²) – 3 times faster than solvent-based flexographic inks.
Immediate post-printing processing (slitting, folding, die-cutting) is possible – reducing production cycles for bulk label orders by 40%.
Stable in the ink trough of flexographic printing (without skinning or clogging) – minimizing downtime and material waste during high-speed operation (100-300 m/min).

FAQ:
How does this ink compare to solvent-based flexo inks for cloth labels?
Our UV ink eliminates solvent evaporation, reducing VOCs by 100% and curing 3x faster. It also outperforms solvent inks in wash resistance (50+ vs. 20-30 cycles) and color retention.
Can it print on stretchable cloth labels (e.g., spandex blends)?
Yes – we offer a flexible formula with 150% elongation, ensuring ink film doesn't crack when labels stretch.
What's the lead time for bulk orders?
Standard colors ship in 7-10 days; custom colors or formulas take 15-20 days. We offer priority production for long-term partners.
