Offset Inks

WEB OFFSET INKS(COLD SET INK)

Coldset offset printing is a process by which the ink dries gradually through evaporation and absorption into the paper.

Coldset printing is most commonly used on uncoated paper stocks like newsprint. Since the ink is not set immediately, there is always a little bit of residue that remains on the paper. Coldset is one of the more economical forms of printing that allows multiple webs to run concurrently, while using less expensive uncoated paper and energy to produce the product.
