The UK ink manufacturer has tied with TPS to supply its range of products that include Silkoseal silk sealer and litho printing inks.

According to the company, Silkoseal silk sealer boasts fast drying and non yellowing properties, as well as strong scuff and rub resistance.

Other inks TPS will distribute include focus intense inks, a highly pigmented process ink series, and hard dry inks.

According to the company, these offer "outstanding rub and drying characteristics" on recycled, uncoated and problematic matt coated stocks.

Steve Brading, Paperlinx business development director said: "TPS will have full access to the complete Shackell Edwards portfolio, giving our customers the maximum choice of quality inks and varnishes on the market today."

Grant Penfield, group managing director of Druckfarben and Shackell Edwards added that TPS’s expertise in the pressroom market will open up a wider range of printers to the Shackell Edwards portfolio.

"In addition with our sales to existing customers, this partnership reinforces Shackell Edwards position as the leading manufacturer of inks and associated products in the UK, helping to continue the growth of our business," he added.
