Our inks, with excellent weatherability and finishing properties, are formulated to achieve adhesion to a wide range of substrates. Our four-color process inks have exceptional printing properties, which allow the printer to produce high-quality graphics with consistent color and limited dot gain.
Norcote manufactures outstanding inks for the product identification market, including nameplates, markings, labels and decals. These are typically printed on various opaque and transparent substrates, including:
These products may be embossed or stamped and are die-cut after printing. A pressure-sensitive adhesive may be applied to the reverse side of the part. Norcote is proud to introduce the new MET series, which is compatible with a variety of coated and uncoated metals.
Our industrial graphic UV inks are used in printing nameplates, LED, dead-front and touch-tone panels. Other products include intricate button die-cut overlays and molded three-dimensional components for electronics, home appliance faceplates, equipment controls and automotive appliques and components. Our inks offer printers solutions to both traditional and high-performance applications, such as in-mold decoration and in-mold labeling.
Norcote UV-conductive silver has been formulated for use on UV-print receptive polyesters, ITO-sputtered coated films and most other films commonly used in the manufacture of flexible circuits. It is suitable for use in a variety of applications including RFID, EL, static shields and contact pads.

UV9C2261 is a screen-printable ink system designed for use with magnetic display systems. When printed on the back of most POP substrates, liquid steel withholds the graphic to the mounted magnetic display. No adhesive is required to mount the sign to the magnetic display. This product allows printers to manufacture display graphics without using costly magnetic material.
UVS-161 is a one-part system recommended for use when trying to achieve three-dimensional effects with a thickness of 5mm, 7mm, 10mm and greater. The end product gains a tactile feel. A common example is printing for Braille applications, which enable a blind or partially sighted person to read through touch.
