FUJIFILM has announced that it has bagged the prestigious RadTech Europe Innovation Award 2025 for its AQUAFUZE technology. The award was presented during the RadTech Europe Conference & Exhibition 2025 in Warsaw, within the plenary session of the RTE Conference, which brought together the entire value chain of UV/EB energy curing technologies, from raw material suppliers to brand owners, under one roof. AQUAFUZE was recognised for its innovative chemistry and its ability to merge the strengths of water-based and UV-curable inkjet systems. The technology introduces a unique UV-curable emulsion that achieves high image quality, strong adhesion, reliable performance and enhanced sustainability, all while curing at low temperatures with LED UV lamps.
Following a decade of R&D, AQUAFUZE allows ink to adhere effectively without primers, maintaining stability over extended periods while producing low-odour, non-hazardous prints. The RadTech Europe Innovation Award highlights companies that are redefining what is possible with energy-curing technologies. This latest achievement further reinforces Fujifilm’s dedication to advancing sustainable inkjet solutions and addressing the evolving requirements of the print industry. After all, AQUAFUZE is not only a technical breakthrough, but a meaningful step forward for the future of sustainable and high-performance printing.
