Click, buy, print − from July 1, 2005, JustinxTM dye sublimation inks from BASF will be offered exclusively on the Internet at www.justinx.basf.com. Here BASF is taking a completely new direction in selling its inks for large-scale digital printing. “We can offer JustinxTM dye sublimation inks directly via the web shop. Users of dye sublimation printing inks will in turn benefit from uncomplicated, low-cost online purchasing“, explains Mike Freche, responsible for marketing in the BASF inkjet team. Three strong partners – BASF Aktiengesellschaft, Ursa Chemie GmbH and FedEx Express – have joined forces to ensure that the inks are supplied simply, rapidly and with consistent quality.
BASF, with its broad chemical know-how and outstanding experience in ink formulation, has been developing and producing brilliant inkjet inks for years. This expertise also distinguishes its JustinxTM dye sublimation inks. As the original manufacturer with a Sawgrass product license, BASF produces the inks to a consistently high quality.
JustinxTM dye sublimation inks are the first choice for problem-free sublimation printing. Whatever the resolution, speed or ink-feed system, digital prints can be produced reliably with sharp outlines and strong colors on virtually all polyester and polyamide surfaces. The inks are recommended for all the usual large-scale digital printing machines, such as Mimaki JV4, Mutoh Viper and Roland Hifi Jet Pro II, as well as variations and rebuilds of these printers.
As BASF’s exclusive distribution partner, Ursa Chemie GmbH packages JustinxTM inks and offers them in the web shop. Ursa Chemie also handles all other aspects of distribution, such as invoicing and shipment. The inks can be ordered from the web shop simply by mouse click and paid for by credit card.
Finally, FedEx Express delivers JustinxTM dye sublimation inks rapidly and at low cost to customers around the world. The inks are generally delivered within 48 hours of order receipt. The order may be tracked in real time on the Internet.
