artience Issues Price Revision of Oil-Based Offset Ink UV-Curable Inks

Raw material, energy prices, logistics and labor costs are continuing to rise.

artience group’s Toyo Ink Co., Ltd. has decided to revise the price of its oil-based offset ink UV-curable inks from Jan. 1, 2026.

In addition to rising raw material and energy prices against the backdrop of the unstable international situation over the past few years, various auxiliary materials, logistics costs, and labor costs have also continued to rise.

 In addition, the printing market for advertising, publishing, and newspapers is shrinking year by year, and the demand for printing inks is also declining accordingly. artience has been working on cost-cutting measures, such as improving production efficiency and reducing fixed costs. However, artience has decided to implement price revisions as follows because it has determined that the increases are exceeding the scope that artience can absorb through its own efforts.
