Kerley Ink, based in Broadview, Illinois, manufactures liquid and paste inks used in publication, commercial printing, and packaging applications. Founded in 1932 by Ray Kerley and incorporated in 1947, it operates as a compact, independently owned firm with deep ink-technology expertise. The company also formulates and manufactures most of its own raw materials for inks and coatings, including pigment dispersions, ink vehicles, and ink compounds. Its customers include large-scale printers worldwide, and it also supplies ink raw materials and press-ready inks on a wholesale basis to other players in the printing ink industry. In early 2017, Kerley Ink announced a UV flexo development campaign to advance formulations for paper, board, film, and foil. The business has a long history of research and product development in inks dating back nearly a century.
