Why are many environmentally conscious customers introducing Flexo Printing? "Flexo Printing combined with Water-based Ink" has a lot of advantage to other printing methods in Environmental Aspects.
Low Energy Consumption for Drying and Low CO2 Emission
- High density ink is used for Flexo Printing compared to Gravure Printing.
- Since ink volume to get a necessary density is much less than Gravure, Flexo Printing needs less
energy for drying.
- As a result Flexo Printing emitts less CO2 as well.
Very low VOC and No Harmful Solvent Emission - Water-based ink contains less than 2% Ethanol and no harmful solvent like Toluene.
- Water-based ink emitts almost no VOC
