The advantages of water-based inkjet inks:
Individually printed wallpapers hang in living rooms, schools, kindergartens or at the workplace. Therefore wallpaper printing should be odourless and free of harmful substances.
Important for wallpaper manufacturers and consumers: Marabu's water-based digital printing inks guarantee that the end product is certified according to DIN 15102 and RAL 479 (quality mark for wallpapers).
