Tinte auf Ölbasis

When durability and deep color saturation are top priorities, oil-based ink remains a trusted solution in the packaging industry. At BonitoPack, we understand that not every packaging project demands fast-drying or eco-coatings, some need long-lasting vibrancy, sharp detail, and excellent material adherence. That’s where oil-based inks excel.
Used primarily in offset and letterpress printing, oil-based inks offer unmatched richness and print stability, especially on coated surfaces and premium packaging materials.
What Is Oil-Based Ink?
Oil-based ink is a traditional printing ink formulated with mineral or synthetic oil as its main carrier. Unlike water- or soy-based inks, oil-based inks dry through oxidation and absorption, which takes more time but results in a durable, color-rich print that stands the test of time.
These inks are well-suited for printing on coated boards, glossy stocks, and specialty papers where instant drying isn’t required, and long-term ink integrity is essential.
Why Use Oil-Based Ink for Packaging?
While newer ink technologies focus on speed and sustainability, oil-based inks still lead in color depth, image sharpness, and material compatibility. They’re ideal for luxury product boxes, premium labels, and high-gloss retail packaging that require bold presentation and longevity.
At BonitoPack, we offer oil-based ink printing for projects where ink integrity, richness, and adhesion take priority over quick drying or high-speed production.
