Unlocking the Full Potential of TIJ with Innovative Thinking and Technology
Thermal Inkjet (TIJ) is a printing method that uses heat to generate bubbles inside the ink, and ejects ink droplets using the pressure of those bubbles. Recognizing the potential of non-contact printing in contrast with the contact-based printing methods we specialized in, we have contributed to the evolution of thermal inkjet technology through our innovative expertise.
Product Features POINT
Leveraging our proprietary ink development technology, we oversee the entire process from formulation to packaging, providing inks tailored to diverse needs.
Point.01 Use of HP Inc. Cartridges with Proven Performance and Reliability
HP Inc.’s compact and lightweight cartridges not only allow easy ink replacement for different substrates and applications but also simplify maintenance and reduce downtime. Since they do not require large-scale printing equipment, they enable space-saving production setups and flexible customization based on the usage environment.
Point.02 Comprehensive Lineup to Meet Every Need
While we specialize in high-adhesion, stable solvent-based black inks, we also offer a wide range of water-based inks, UV-curable inks, and various color inks. In addition to striving to comply with domestic and international legal standards, we are committed to developing environmentally friendly and non-hazardous products by avoiding the use of substances of very high concern, such as PFAS (Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances).
Point.03 Leading the Industry Through Reliable Quality and Stable Supply
We are dedicated to developing inks that meet our customers' needs. By managing the entire production process—from ink formulation to filling, packaging, and shipping—we ensure a stable supply of high-quality products. As our inks are used across diverse industries, we focus on safe and reliable manufacturing to support our customers’ businesses.
