While the standard ink colours, black, blue, red, green, and purple, are commonly available, using rubber stamps with unique ink colours can offer several advantages. These different ink colours we now call alternative ink colour stamps here at Self-Inking Stamps Limited.
We used to call these Extra colour stamps as they are the extra colours other than the 5 standard colours in our multi-colour stamps. However, this seemed to confuse a few people. So now they are called Alternative colour stamps.
These rubber stamp inks are all water-based inks and suitable for porous surfaces like paper, cardboard, wood and yes, your own skin. Ideal for schools, kids parties and nightclubs.
Let us explore the benefits of incorporating different ink colours into your stamping routine.

This can improve readability and ensure important information is not overlooked. Have you ever seen an orange stamp mark on a document? It really stands out. Unexpected and you are drawn to pay attention to what it says.
Effective Categorization
Different ink colours can be used to categorize documents or items efficiently. For example, using a specific colour for urgent documents, another for completed tasks, and yet another for pending items can streamline organization and workflow. Using these Trodat ink colours and combining with the similar body colours for selected models it is easy to select the correct stamp on body colour alone at a quick glance. A pink combo or an orange combo are possible to do. Pastel blue body and light blue ink. How about an unusual Yellow Green ink with the green body?
