Derivan Block Printing Inks

This block printing ink has the perfect consistency for lino and wood block printing, and transfers onto paper. It is non-toxic, water-based, and washes up easily in water.

Derivan developed this unique product for art and craft courses to give people a premium quality block printing ink that did not contain harmful solvents.

Derivan Block Ink is therefore non-toxic and easy to clean up, while still giving the feel of a professional-grade oil-based printing ink.

A Derivan Block Ink Medium and Extender is also available to use in conjunction with these inks to achieve transparency.

The Derivan Block Inks are available in 250ml tubs.
