What type of ink does 4OVER4.COM print with?

Commercial printing uses inks matched to the press and the job. For color reproduction on paper stocks, full-color work is built from the standard CMYK process set, with spot and specialty inks available for particular effects. At 4OVER4 we use vegetable-based, environmentally friendly inks with little or no mineral oil content, which lowers environmental impact without sacrificing color.

• CMYK process inks: cyan, magenta, yellow, and black combined to reproduce full-color artwork
• Spot and specialty inks: used for exact color matching and finishes on select products
• Greener formulation: soy and vegetable-based, low-VOC inks are made largely from renewable plant oils rather than petroleum and reduce harmful emissions during drying
• Cleaner recycling: vegetable-based inks are easier to remove when paper is recycled, keeping the recycling stream cleaner
• Same vivid results: you still get rich, accurate full-color printing
• Pairing: eco inks work best alongside FSC-certified or recycled stocks for a fully responsible job
