MUTOH’s newly launched UH71 is a rigid-type LED-UV ink for XpertJet 1462UF, which is developed to deliver durable, high-quality output on a broad range of rigid substrates. The new ink has been developed for applications including customised goods, novelty items, industrial parts, promotional products, retail displays and signage. UH71 offers compatibility with substrates such as PET, PC, ABS, PS, PVC, PMMA and aluminium. UH71 combines strong adhesion, high durability, chemical resistance, low odour and tack-free output, supporting reliable production of both decorative and functional print applications. The ink set also includes a highly transparent clear ink, enabling premium varnish effects as well as applications such as Braille and raised print.
A key element of the UH71 positioning is its formulation. The ink has been developed without the use of TPO, without substances classified as SVHCs and without substances classified as CMR Category 1 (1A or 1B), reflecting MUTOH’s focus on product development that balances print performance with increased attention to workplace and environmental considerations. UH71 is also UL GREENGUARD Gold certified. With the addition of UH71, MUTOH further broadens its LED-UV ink portfolio. Together with the existing US61 LED-UV ink, the new rigid-type formulation offers users a clearer choice between ink types optimised for rigid and flexible application needs.
