UVALUX® 98 LED Series

Dual-cure ink series for commercial and packaging sheetfed applications

UVALUX 98 LED series represents the latest advancement in UV-LED ink technology, specifically designed for demanding sheetfed offset printing applications. Whether you’re in commercial or packaging printing, this series delivers exceptional performance, handling even the most complex printing tasks with ease. Ideally suited for non-food packaging, non-food labels, and a wide range of commercial printing projects on paper and board substrates. This new ink series was optimized for adhesion on metalized boards and certain synthetic or film/foil substrates.


This DualCURE ink series is designed for optimal performance with UV-LED system in the 385-395 nm wavelength range. However, these inks are also compatible with conventional UV (mercury vapor) lamps as well as LE-UV and H-UV (iron-doped mercury vapor) lamps.


The UVALUX 98 LED series was engineered to meet the rigorous demands of modern offset printing. With enhanced curing properties, it delivers exceptional performance even on challenging substrates. This ink series is particularly well-suited for long sheetfed perfecting presses, enabling high-speed printing without compromising quality.

Experience the future of UV-LED ink technology with the UVALUX 98 LED series.


UVALUX 98 LED series process inks are manufactured corresponding to ISO 2846-1 and meet the requirements for G7 certification.
