AnaBright Inks
AnaBright textile inks
are specially developed for optimal ink flow with AnaJet apparel printers.
AnaBright inks are water-based pigmented inks, designed for color
vibrancy and wash-ability. All AnaJet inks, cleaning solutions and pretreatment
are formulated with great consideration for their health effects and impact
on the environment. Liquids used in AnaJet systems are among the most
eco friendly in the industry. AnaBright inks' high optical density
assures themost vibrant colors in the industry.It also has excellent resistance
to washing and sunlight.
AnaJet printers use a CMYK (cyan, magenta, yellow and black, respectively)
four color ink system for white and light colored garment printing. To
print on dark colored garments, white ink is used for undercoating as
well as highlights. The CMYK process color system provides 16 million
colors under software control, which provides the ability to print the
most intricate design details.
How Much Ink is Used per Print?
Since ink consumption rate is a concern of many, we did a full scale study
of ink usage rate in March, 2008. But one should not be overly concerned
about the ink cost, as the gross margin is so large in direct-to-garment
decoration business. Better ink flow of AnaJet system also helps reduce
ink wasted for system maintenace, and help reduce total ink cost. Here
is a quick summary of AnaJet ink cost study.

White Shirt: ~ $0.40 ($0.60 at heavy ink setting)
Black Shirt: ~ $1.50 ($2.25 at heavy ink setting)

Formaldehyde in Pretreatment Liquids
The health effects of formaldehyde in AnaBright Pretreatment Liquid
(ABA-PRE1) on the garment wearer is an item of concern to AnaJet. Recently
we revisited this issue and released the following Technical Bulletin
on this subject. AnaJet customers will be happy to see the results in
the following summary of our findings. For details, please download the
pdf file.
Summary : The amount of residual formaldehyde on a dark garment
printed with an AnaJet system is significantly below the acceptable limits
established by domestic and foreign government agencies. In short, the
residual formaldehyde level is about 14.7PPM while the most stringent
governmental standard allows 70PPM (or 20PPM for babies).
