Prints that don't smudge
One of the most destructive influences on any document is people. Even everyday handling can result in smudged documents and photos. DURABrite ink has been designed to withstand rough handling and keep documents clear and crisp. |

Brilliant colour and detail
When inks are absorbed by paper fibres, which happens frequently with plain and recycled papers, light has less chance to reflect the colour. DURABrite ink avoids this with its protective resin coating, which bonds the particles to form a smooth and uniform surface for greater light reflection. |

Clarity of text and images
DURABrite ink particles are encapsulated in a resin coating. They don’t penetrate plain paper like other inks (as this causes a feathering effect, giving the characters a jagged edge.) With DURABrite ink, text and graphics are much sharper on both plain and recycled paper. |
