The present application is drawn to infrared reflective ink formulations, infrared reflective dried coatings prepared from such inks, and IR-reflective substrates and adhesive tapes prepared from such inks and coatings. The inks are suitable for printing by gravure or flexo methods onto polymeric substrates such as PET, paper, or other substrate materials. The coatings are reflective in the near-infrared range. The coatings and tapes are well suited for use in manufacturing methods. The coatings and/or the tapes are ultrathin, on the order of a few micrometers, making them attractive for use in different industrial applications.

An ink contains water, Pigment Red 269, a compound represented by the following Chemical formula (1), and at least one of a silicone compound and an acetylene glycol compound, where the proportion of the compound represented by the following Chemical formula (1) to the Pigment Red 269 is 2.0 percent by mass or less: ##STR00001##
