Welcome to Chromatic Technologies

Chromatic Technologies, Inc. (CTI) is a custom special effects ink manufacturer. We are the world leader in thermochromic, photochromic, glow-in-the-dark, metal decoration, and color shifting ink. Large brands, world-class printers, top graphic design and ad agencies turn to CTI not only for our awesome product selection, but also because we are a company that takes “it can’t be done!” as a challenge. When “never seen before” is needed we listen, evaluate the challenge with you, and then make a decision with you as to whether or not an R&D project is the best direction to take. Our standard lead time is 7-10 days, but as you might imagine the lead time for doing the impossible is a little longer!

Our inks come in UV cure, water-based, and solvent-based formulations with standard formulation temperatures of 15C, 31C, and 45C. Everything we do is custom made for you when you order it. We have color changing inks for all the major commercial printing process including offset, gravure, screen, flexographic, and metal decoration. We are not afraid to venture out to unknown substrates and recently have had success on BoPP, PVC and other challenging surfaces. You will be hard pressed to find another specialty ink manufacturer in the world with the depth and breadth of product line and experience.
