Nazdar® Introduces PowerPrint® Renew 1400
Multipurpose Graphic Ink

SHAWNEE, KS — Nazdar, the largest North American manufacturer of screen and digital printing inks, announces PowerPrint Renew 1400, the newest addition to Nazdar’s ink lines designed to lower environmental impact. A multipurpose graphic ink, PowerPrint Renew 1400 uses raw materials made from renewable resources rather than fossil fuels.

Based on independent lab testing using ASTM D6866, Renew 1400 measures to have 20% bio-based content. The definition of a bio-based material given by the Sustainable Green Printers Partnership at www.sgppartnership.org is : “A bio-based material is any material made from renewable plant matter (as opposed to non-renewable prehistoric plant material, fossil fuels), including agricultural crops and residues, and trees.”

According to Phil McGugan, Nazdar’s Vice President of Global Sales and Marketing, “Nazdar is committed to reducing our impact on the environment both within our manufacturing and distribution centers and providing suitable products to the market. The release of this ink on Earth Day underscores our efforts in this important area.”

More information on compatible substrates, colors and print recommendations are available at www.nazdar.com.
