Very good resistance and adhesion, and the making without the use of BPA makes Tampa® Tex TPX particularly suitable for sensitive applications like baby items. Tampa® Tex TPX is suited for printing onto food contact materials according to EuPIA GMP. Please refer to the TechINFO "Tampa® Tex TPX and GMP".
Fade resistance Only pigments of high fade resistance are used in the Tampa® Tex TPX range. Shades mixed by adding overprint varnish or other colour shades, especially white, have a reduced fade and weather resistance depending on their mixing ratio. The fade resistance also decreases if the ink film thickness is reduced. The pigments used are resistant to solvents and plasticizers. Stress resistance Textiles: Maximum washing resistance is reached if prints are allowed to dry for 2 days at 20°C. This can be accelerated with forced drying like oven or hot air.
