Wilflex Rival Ink
Wilflex Rival ink in short: Rival is Avient's Wilflex plastisol series built for production speed: a lower cure temperature, fast flash and a soft hand. Rival Sport LC is the low-cure white for polyester and blends, where a lower cure helps limit dye migration.

When performance, affordability, and press efficiency matter most, screen printers across the United States choose Wilflex Rival Ink.

From fashion brands and promo apparel to athletic gear and high-volume production runs, Rival Sport performs with reliability on polyester and poly-blend garments (Avient does not list 100% cotton for Rival Sport).
Wilflex Rival was developed for shops that need a production-grade plastisol ink system with a shorter learning curve and lower equipment stress. The formula offers a creamy body that flows smoothly through mesh screens, flashes quickly under both quartz and infrared units, and cures at lower temperatures, which helps reduce energy costs and protect synthetic fabrics. Because Rival is manufactured by Avient, you also get the confidence of a global brand with advanced pigment control, durability testing, and regulatory compliance baked into every bucket.
From coast to coast, Rival Ink is used in high-pressure production environments, where printers can’t afford downtime or inconsistency. It reduces the need for excessive flashing, minimizes build-up, and provides a bold, opaque finish that doesn’t crack or peel—making it ideal for large runs of corporate merch, school spiritwear, event apparel, or branded retail garments.
