Nordic White™ Ink is a high-opacity, low-bleed white plastisol ink designed for printing on 100% polyester and polyester/cotton blends. Its creamy consistency and superior bleed resistance provide excellent coverage and printability when working with polyester garments.
Nordic White™ combines superior printability with a soft feel, making it suitable for both manual and automatic screen printing presses. Its fast-flashing formulation produces little tack after flashing, helping maintain smooth production when printing white directly or using it as an underbase.
The high-opacity formulation provides strong white coverage, while its low-bleed properties help control dye migration when printing on polyester and poly/cotton fabrics. The creamy consistency also makes the ink easy to work with while maintaining the performance needed for production environments.
Nordic White™ requires the entire ink film to reach 320°F for proper cure. Because polyester fabrics and dyes can vary, testing the garment and complete print process before production is recommended.

Recommended Fabrics:
100% polyester, cotton/polyester blends and cotton. Always test print fabric before beginning a production run.
Ink Application:
Nordic White™ should be used right from the container without any modifications. If thinning is required, use 1% to 10% by weight of a Curable Low Bleed Reducer. Adding any reducers or additives can lower the bleed resistance, opacity, or increase cure times of ink. STIR the ink prior to printing on press and after addition of reducers or additives.
Mesh and Emulsion:
85-200 t/in monofilament or, for under basing, use 110-200 t/in monofilament.
Any direct or indirect emulsion or capillary film in the 35 to 70 micron range, for best results.
Squeegee:
65-70 Durometer, Sharp Edge
Cure Temperatures:
320°F entire ink film for multiple color prints. Test dryer temperatures and wash test printed product before and during a production run.
Clean-Up:
Any environmentally friendly plastisol screen wash
Storage:
Recommend storage at 65°F to 90°F (18°C to 32°C). Avoid storage in direct sunlight. Keep containers well sealed
