Widely used in printing inks, especially for packaging and labels due to its strong red hue and good dispersibility. Commonly found in flexographic and gravure inks where color consistency and brightness are important. Also applied in industrial coatings and some types of plastics, though performance may vary depending on the resin system. Not typically recommended for outdoor use as it has moderate to poor lightfastness. Used in low-cost colored products where high durability is not required.
