We work to reduce the environmental impact of our inks across their entire life cycle: from the choice of ingredients to the recovery of waste, without compromising their performance on press.
Progressive reduction of emissions throughout our production processes.
Ingredients
Increasingly safer and biodegradable ingredients, without sacrificing machine performance.
Circularity
Commitment to the circular economy: from formula design to waste recovery.
Full Lifecycle
The ink that returns
We design every ink across its entire journey — from formulation to waste, and back to the start. Four stages that feed into each other.
01
Clean formulation
Each ink is engineered prioritizing safer, lower-impact components right from the source.
02
Efficient production
Processes optimized to reduce energy, water consumption, and emissions with every batch.
03
High-performance use
Greater durability means fewer reprints, less rework, and less waste in the market.
04
Recovery
We close the loop with our clients: packaging, leftovers, and waste managed responsibly.
And back to the start
A cycle that never stops: what we recover in stage 04 feeds right back into stage 01 formulation.
Worklines
Actions, not promises
Line 01
Safer formulas
Progressive replacement of critical components with lower-impact alternatives for people and the environment.
Line 02
Less waste
Lean, on-demand batch production to minimize leftovers and product expiration.
Line 03
Full traceability
Every batch is traceable from end to end: we know what’s in it, where it comes from, and where it goes.
Line 04
Continuous improvement
We measure, review, and enhance our impact indicators across every production cycle.
Frequently asked questions
Green on the inside, clear on the outside
Does a sustainable ink perform as well as a conventional one?
+
Yes, and that is precisely our job: reformulating without compromising press performance. Our most sustainable inks maintain the exact same color accuracy, adhesion, and durability. If an alternative doesn’t meet the standard, it doesn’t leave the lab.
What does «increasingly safer ingredients» mean?
+
It means that with every formula review, we replace components with safer and more biodegradable alternatives as they become available, without sacrificing performance. The composition of each batch is documented and made available to the client.
How do you measure emissions reduction?
+
We compare energy consumption and process emissions against our internal baseline, batch by batch. We will publish the metrics once validated: we prefer verified data over marketing figures.
Can I use your documentation in my brand’s communications?
+
Yes. We provide you with the technical documentation for each batch so your marketing and compliance teams can back up environmental claims with real data—a requirement increasingly mandated by European anti-greenwashing regulations.
What happens with packaging and leftover ink?
+
We work with our clients to close the loop: responsible packaging management, recovery of leftovers, and on-demand production planning to prevent waste from being generated in the first place. The best wasted ink is the one that was never manufactured.
