Specialist Inks: Food Grade Inks
Linx food grade inks contain only edible raw materials conforming to regulations of either the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA), or the European Union (EU). When used with Linx ink jet printers, these Linx inks offer a very safe and flexible means of coding and marking edible products. They are also suitable for product identification of packaging that comes into contact with food.
Linx does not manufacture inks or solvents for any other supplier. Our fluids are tested extensively during their development, and are manufactured according to strict specifications, resulting in a high level of quality assurance. There is ample evidence that the use of non-Linx inks or solvents in Linx printers can affect printer reliability and lead to costly repairs and production line downtime.
