1. Product Overview

Soy-Based Offset Printing Ink is an eco-friendly alternative to traditional petroleum-based inks, formulated with soybean oil (SBO) as the primary renewable vehicle. Designed for commercial and packaging printing, this ink delivers vibrant color reproduction, excellent stability, and reduced environmental impact while meeting industry performance standards.

Key Advantages

✔ Renewable & Sustainable – Contains ≥30% soybean oil (ASTM D6006 certified)
✔ Low VOC Emissions – Complies with EPA, REACH, and Blue Angel environmental regulations
✔ Superior Printability – High pigment load for sharp dots and smooth ink transfer
✔ Fast Drying – Oxidation polymerization drying optimized for high-speed presses
✔ Food-Safe – Complies with FDA 21 CFR §176.200 for indirect food contact

Product Features:

◎High Color Density and Quick Dry

◎Water and Rub Resistance

◎High Gloss

◎Environmental Protection

3. Environmental Benefits

(1) Reduced Carbon Footprint

  • Soybean oil is carbon-neutral—CO₂ absorbed during soybean growth offsets emissions from ink production.

  • 50% lower greenhouse gas emissions vs. petroleum-based inks (Life Cycle Assessment verified).

(2) Biodegradability & Recycling

  • 90% biodegradable (OECD 301B test), minimizing landfill impact.

  • Improves de-inking efficiency in paper recycling by 20% (INGEDE Method 11).

(3) Worker & Consumer Safety

  • Free from heavy metals (Pb, Cd, Hg, Cr⁶⁺) and phthalates (EN 71-3 compliant).

  • Non-hazardous under OSHA Hazard Communication Standard.

5. Recommended Applications

(1) Commercial Printing

  • Magazines/Catalogs: Low rub-off ensures high-quality glossy prints.

  • Book Publishing: Excellent paper penetration reduces show-through.

(2) Packaging

  • Folding Cartons: Safe for food/pharma packaging (no migration risks)

  • Eco-Labeling: Ideal for brands promoting sustainability (e.g., FSC-certified stocks).

(3) Specialty Uses

  • Security Printing: Compatible with UV-readable additives.

  • Children’s Products: Non-toxic formula meets CPSIA standards.


6. Printing Guidelines

(1) Press Settings

  • Ink-Water Balance: pH 4.5-5.5 (use soy-compatible fountain solution).

  • Drying: Add 1-2% drying accelerator for speeds >10,000 sph.

(2) Substrate Prep

  • Coated Paper: Reduce ink film thickness by 10% vs. conventional inks.

  • Recycled Paper: Pre-test for absorbency variations.

(3) Storage & Handling

  • Shelf Life: 12 months (keep sealed at 10-30°C).

  • Cleanup: Wash with vegetable oil-based cleaners (reduces solvent use).


7. Certifications & Compliance

  • USDA BioPreferred® (Catalog # INK-01)

  • EU Ecolabel (EN 13432 compostability)

  • China GB/T 31107-2014 (Soy ink standard)

9. FAQ

Q: Can soy ink run on all offset presses?
A: Yes, including Heidelberg, KBA, Komori. Adjust ink keys for higher viscosity.

Q: Does it work with UV coating?
A: Yes, but test adhesion—some UV coats require primers.

Q: How to justify the higher cost?
A: Savings from VOC compliance fees, recycling credits, and brand ESG value offset costs.
