Champion Inks® Water-Based Fluorescent Screen Printing Ink – Purple
Champion Inks® Water-Based Fluorescent Screen Printing Ink – Purple is a high-intensity, eco-forward neon textile ink engineered for bold, high-visibility graphics on cotton and cotton/poly blends. This ultra-bright fluorescent purple delivers vivid saturation and a breathable, soft-hand feel with a smooth matte finish. It is built for professional screen printing workflows that demand strong vibrancy without the heavy plastisol hand.
Designed for streetwear drops, festival merch, nightlife apparel, and premium fashion graphics, this ink is UV-reactive. Under blacklight it hits with an electric violet glow, and under normal lighting it retains deep neon energy. Phthalate-free and water-based, it supports modern, lower-VOC print rooms while maintaining durable wash performance.
