The brand-new system consists of Printofix African-american NTR-TF, a non-gelling pigment black along with 79 per-cent replenishable carbon dioxide content Helizarin NTR-SS, a formaldehyde-free super-soft binder with 40 per-cent renewable carbon material and also the Luprintol Mending Broker NTR-HF, a formaldehyde-free correcting broker with 40 per-cent sustainable carbon dioxide content.
