Ink That Does What?

SolarActive® International located in Tarzana, California is the leading manufacturer of UV color change technology worldwide. Our SolarActive® color change plastisol screen print inks are made with stabilized UV reactive pigments. The ink is colorless indoors, and instantly turns to bright vibrant colors in the sunlight. This process is different than fluorescence inks in which a dye or pigment absorbs one wavelength of light (usually invisible with ultraviolet) and then it emits the same energy as another wavelength. The UV reactive pigments change their structure to another color when the UV wavelength is introduced
