The MB Series pad printing ink is most notably:

• Medical grade
• Highly opaque
• Perfect for printing on numerous tricky materials

The MB series is a crowd pleaser as it prints on numerous materials including: coated metals, painted surfaces, hard plastics, pre-treated polypropylene, polyethylene, acrylics, powder-coated surfaces, and epoxy resins. Those substrates are known for being difficult to print on, yet, the MB series is well known for its capabilities to print on them while displaying excellent adhesion properties. That being said, ideal applications for the MB series include bicycle helmets, hard hats, automotive knobs and buttons, saw blades, flashlights, and drinkware.

MB series is a high-gloss, fast-curing, opaque, 2-component pad printing ink. Another differentiating factor to the MB series ink line is that it has superior chemical and mechanical resistance to alcohol, acids, and alkali on metals and hard plastics.

As previously mentioned, the MB series is classified as medical grade as it passes Class VI Certification, ideal and proven safe for use on medical instruments. It is both non-toxic and specially formulated with pigments that do not contain heavy metals. For further information, we have Safety Data Sheets readily available.
