Ink Type
Funai Inks
Funai inkjet cartridges, combined with a robust Kao ink portfolio, provide leading-edge printing solutions for industrial printers.
Kao and Funai
Kao allied with Funai to deliver new inks targeted toward standard, solvent, and food grade market applications that support Funai’s drop-on-demand thermal inkjet (TIJ) printing solutions throughout the global market.
Kao’s water-based and solvent-based Funai ink formulations are available in black, process, or spot colours. A list of specialty and solvent inks is available upon request. The high-speed Funai systems often deliver at least double the printhead life expectancy when equipped with high-capacity ink delivery systems.
Markets and Industries Served
Funai industrial printers are one of the most widely used printing systems in the world. In addition, OEMs rely on Funai technology to build printing systems for specialty applications.

Benefits
- Funai inks from Kao are packaged in newly-manufactured inkjet cartridges sourced directly from Funai factories, eliminating concern over cartridge reliability and ink performance with your Funai industrial inkjet printing systems.
- Funai’s revolutionary new print cartridges enable thermal inkjet printing on curved surfaces, delivering optimal results when paired with NEXXO ink from Kao.
- When paired with NEXXO ink, Funai systems produce high-resolution expiration dates and reliable 2D codes for printing food and pharmaceutical packaging.
- Funai’s new thermal inkjet cartridges are not degraded by aggressive solvent inks, enabling industrial printing on more substrates when using Funai inks like NEXXO.
