our eco friendly inks
The staple of our printing process is high quality inks. We take a deep dive into Permaset Aqua textile inks and show why we love them so much.
Permaset inks are one of the most eco-friendly brands around. Here are a few reasons why!
- Approved by the Soil Association, UK.
- Water based, not plastic based.
- No solvents or chemicals are needed to clean our screens, Permaset inks can be washed off with water which goes down the drain without causing harm to wildlife.
- GOTS approved.
- Manufactured in a solar powered factory.
- 100% Vegan and never tested on animals.
- Oeko-Tex® Standard 100 Class 1 certified, meaning every component has been tested for harmful and toxic substances. This also means they are safe to use on underwear, swimwear and baby wear.
- They are also compostable when combined with natural fabrics.
Their incredible colour vibrancy and opacity means we can achieve perfect coverage, even on dark garments. The inks blend with the fabric fibres without leaving a plasticky film on top.
We can custom mix any colour to your requirements, simply choose a Pantone U reference or bring us a swatch to colour match from. We also provide pre-mixed tubs of ink for screen printers, read more here or get in touch for details.
Our inks can be washed, ironed on and tumble dried. However, to get the most out of your garments and protect the environment, we recommend washing at 30 degrees and drying naturally.
We carry a range of specialist inks such as thermal, neon brights, metallic gold, bronze or silver and a textured puff paste.
