A brand new
book, a brand new corporate
Brochure, always carries a faint and unique scent when opened. Many people subconsciously believe that having ink smell is not environmentally friendly and of poor quality? In fact, this is the most common misconception among the public about the printing industry. Today, Haikuo Industry and Trade will unlock the cold knowledge of printing and understand the industry truth behind the new book "Exclusive Fragrance".
Ink odor ≠ poor quality, not environmentally friendly
Modern formal books, brochures, and cultural and creative printing have already fully popularized environmentally friendly soy ink. Different from traditional petroleum based inks, soybean ink is mainly made from natural soybean oil, which is low toxicity, low residue, and more environmentally friendly. It is also the designated special ink for book publishing, brand catalogs, and cultural and creative materials.
The faint scent we smell is not the smell of harmful substances, but the natural volatilization of trace amounts of environmentally friendly additives during the ink drying process. After printing is completed, the ink needs a certain amount of time to fully solidify and dry. With ventilation and standing, this odor will slowly dissipate, which is a completely normal production phenomenon.
Teach you to distinguish at a glance: normal ink smell vs inferior ink smell
Many customers do not know how to distinguish the quality of
Printed materials, and rely solely on odor to make accurate distinctions
✅ High quality environmentally friendly ink has a light, soft, and non irritating odor. It can dissipate after 1-3 days of ventilation and is safe and harmless. It is suitable for books, children's books, and corporate gift brochures.
❌ Poor quality non-standard ink has a pungent, choking, and strong odor, with long-term residue that does not dissipate and high solvent residue, which not only affects the appearance but also poses safety hazards.
In addition, the unique flavor of the new book also incorporates the plant fiber scent of the paper itself. Native wood pulp paper has a faint natural wood fragrance that blends with the ink flavor, ultimately forming the familiar "new book flavor".
Behind the subtle odor lies the quality and craftsmanship of printing companies
The seemingly inconspicuous ink smell actually tests the material standards and production details of a printing company.
In the homogenized printing market, Haikuo Industry and Trade has always adhered to the bottom line of quality, using compliant and environmentally friendly soybean ink throughout the process, rejecting inferior and low-priced ink, and ensuring the safety, environmental protection, and odorless residue of printed materials from the source.
At the same time, in the production process, we strictly follow the finished product drying process. After printing, all brochures, books, cultural and creative printed products reserve sufficient ventilation and drying time to allow the ink to fully solidify and evaporate, minimize odor, and improve the texture and safety of the finished product.
