How Ink Is Made

A Chief Ink Maker shows us how ink is made at The Printing Ink Company in Canada. This wonderful tour of the ink factory is presented by Peter Welfare, president and head inkmaker. As you can see he is passionate about the ink manufacturing process as he shows how color and ink are created from the raw ingredients of powder, varnish, and passion. He explains everything else designers and printers need to know about the process, the challenges, and joy of ink making.
