Custom Resins for Ink Printing Applications High-gloss performance with fast dry times and flexible compatibility
USPA resins are engineered for high-speed printing environments where adhesion, clarity and gloss can’t be compromised. Our ink resins and film formers are formulated for use in flexographic, gravure and surface printing systems across paper, plastic, foil and film substrates.
We support pressroom performance with nitrocellulose-compatible polyurethane resins, overprint varnish solutions and solvent systems engineered for precise flow, fast cure response and long-term print durability.
Built for Flexo and Surface Printing
Our Reze-Thane and Reze-Meric product lines include resins designed to deliver:
- Reliable adhesion across film, foil, paper and synthetic substrates
- Enhanced gloss, color depth and print clarity in surface printing applications
- Compatibility with nitrocellulose, acrylics and other binders
- Fast dry and recoat performance for high-speed press operations
- Abrasion, chemical and solvent resistance for durable packaging applications
Our ink resin systems are designed to support consistent ink transfer, smooth film formation and reliable performance across demanding print environments. Applications include flexible packaging, labels, industrial graphics, decorative printing and specialty surface coatings.
Printing Ink Resins for Any Industry
We create custom resins for printing to help the ink adhere to your surface printing application. Our chemists create custom ink formulations for durability, flexibility and modular solutions. We’ve created solutions for several applications, including:
Custom Ink Solutions for Manufacturing
We work with commercial ink producers and private-label brands to develop custom resin blends with exact formulation targets. Whether you're aiming for higher pigment loading, lower VOC content or better lamination bond strength, our team formulates resins to match your needs.
Common Optimizations for Ink Resins Include:
- Viscosity
- Flow behavior
- Cure response times
- Pressroom result consistency
- Print clarity
- Ink transfer
- Ink adherence to non-porous surfaces
