Sonexa™ VOC-free Soy oil-based Colors

Kerley’s latest offering in the newsink is our most innovative yet. What’s so innovative about Sonexa newsink? For one, it’s stronger than most newsinks. This gives brighter, deeper color that the advertisers are demanding. Are you a commercial printer? Do you need to be able to print stochastic screens? Is print quality versus commercial heatset a critical issue for your advertisers? Then think Sonexa colors. Sonexa’s good for the environment, too. Sonexa is made with 
soybean_plant
vegetable oils almost exclusively. Sonexa is extremely low in heavy metal content. It’s safe to use and it recycles well, being made from bio-resources to begin with. Sonexa has excellent performance on-press, yielding good copy in as few as 50 impressions after startup. Sonexa costs less to use than any other newsink products, too. It’s strong, and a pound of Sonexa runs long... 

...So what’s stopping you from trying Sonexa?


Sonexa is available for both open fountain and injector presses. Sonexa process colors work in harmony with any of the Kerley news blacks noted in our catalog. Additionally, we can custom-formulate Sonexa process colors to work on presses with special requirements. Below is a table showing a grid of our most popular Sonexa Colors:

We also offer a new, enhanced strength set of mixing colors in the all-soy, zero-VOC  “Sonexa” line. They’re the Sonexa 3 “PLS” series. They feature more color strength than other Pantone®*-based colors systems on the market, which gives you more contrast and color “snap”, regardless of the gamma range specified by the advertiser. These colors contain no VOC’s (Volatile Organic Compounds), which is good for the environment. Sonexa 3 PLS colors have a tack of 6 points at 1200 RPM.  Please anticipate a minimum order of 200 lbs (90 kgs) per color. Sonexa 2 PLS colors are available in the following shades:
  • Process Blue
  • Phthalo Green
  • Rubine Red/Process Red
  • Rhodamine Red
  • Process Yellow
  • Purple
  • Reflex Blue
  • Violet
  • Warm Red

Sonexa 2 PLS Series colors are in stock in 3.5 gallon buckets and have no minimum order. Please order Soytab Black when you need a mixing black for this set, and order Soytab Extender FFG when you need a transparent extender.
