We can provide more environmentally friendly printing options.
Research and technology in recent years has created new products that are safer to the environment. We work with Permaset Aqua, which are water based inks that contain no toxic chemicals and are also free from lead and other heavy metals. They do not contain ozone-depleting chemicals such as CFCs and HCFCs aromatic hydrocarbons or any volatile solvents, and as the inks are water-based the screens can be cleaned with water rather than solvents.
The water-based ink we use passed the Oekotex Class 1 standard which means that it is safe to use on baby clothes
Printing with water based inks can be more difficult and time consuming, as they have a tendency to air dry easily and can block the printing screens. This can increase the cost of printing slightly....but, we think it is worth it.
If you would like to know more about these special printing options, please get in touch as we would love to help you understand and make the most of these alternative printing options. |
