Dominant Industry is a South Korea–based ink brand founded in 2021 in Paju, known for producing small-batch inks that are both expressive and a pleasure to use. Drawing on mixing and blending techniques originally developed for silk-screen printing, the brand creates specialty calligraphy and dip-pen inks with striking metallic, mirror, and reflective effects. Rather than flat, digitally mixed colors, Dominant Industry focuses on creating vivid, dimensional hues using reflective and transparent pigments that interact with natural light. The result is ink that feels alive on the page - what the brand calls “bottled light.”
Their lineup is offered in four distinct finishes - Hologram, Mirror, Pearl, and Standard - each designed to showcase depth, movement, and beauty across a variety of surfaces, from paper to film and glass.
