Xeikon has announced the introduction of two new toners, MatteSilver and PalladiumSilver. The two special silver metallic toner colors will enable more creative possibilities for designers, as well as label and package printers and converters using Xeikon’s digital printing technologies.
The luxury-look MatteSilver and PalladiumSilver toners are the first products in the new Xeikon Creative Colors toner group, which recognizes and explores the added value that special effects bring to label and packaging print, especially in the consumer products arena.
MatteSilver offers the luxury of a rich metal finish to the print substrate while PalladiumSilver features a speckled silver sparkle for extra textural interest.
“With this new Creative Colors toner line, Xeikon is mirroring the capabilities of flexo and offset inks,” explains Jeroen Van Bauwel, director of product management at Xeikon. “We are giving label and packaging printers and converters the opportunity to offer brand owners added-value haptic and optic qualities with the Xeikon digital print process – popular features of brand promotion and marketing across the globe today. The Creative Colors toner line adds an exciting extra dimension to our recognized strengths in the label and packaging print arena – shorter runs, extended product variants and faster delivery times than conventional processes, and of course, personalization. They really make a design stand out.”
The new MatteSilver and PalladiumSilver toners complement Xeikon’s toner portfolio that includes standard colors (CMYK), off-the-shelf spot colors, custom spot colors, technical colors and creative colors.
“Xeikon is really trailblazing with this new Creative Colors toner line, and we are confident that it will bring even more opportunities in the future for printers employing Xeikon presses to differentiate themselves from their competitors and deliver the luxury effects that today’s brand owners want,” adds Van Bauwel. “These new toners also represent another step in the analog-to-digital transformation in print and packaging production, not only by enabling new applications but also by allowing printers and converters to migrate even more applications from conventional printing and finishing technologies to digital. And this is just the beginning.”
