we only use Eco inks
We only use water-based inks at SeaSurf which offer several benefits compared to other types of inks, such as solvent or oil-based versions. Here are some of the advantages of water-based inks:
Environmental friendliness: Water-based inks are considered more environmentally friendly compared to solvent-based inks because they have lower volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions. VOCs can contribute to air pollution and have harmful effects on human health. They are a safer and greener alternative, as they use water as the main solvent instead of harsh chemicals.
Safety and health: Water-based inks are generally safer to handle and work with compared to solvent-based inks. They have lower toxicity levels, reducing the risks associated with inhalation or skin contact. This makes them a preferred choice for industries that prioritise the health and safety of workers.
Reduced odor: Water-based inks have minimal odor compared to the alternatives. This is particularly beneficial in indoor settings, such as commercial printing facilities or home-based printing setups. The absence of strong odors makes water-based inks more comfortable to work with and improves the overall printing experience.
Versatility: Water-based inks can be used on a wide range of substrates, including paper, cardboard, fabric, and wood. They provide good adhesion and color vibrancy on various surfaces, making them suitable for diverse applications such as packaging, textiles, and fine art printing.
Colour quality and flexibility: Water-based inks offer excellent colour reproduction and saturation. They can produce vibrant, high-quality prints with accurate colour matching. Water-based inks are also mixable, allowing for easy color customisation and flexibility in achieving desired shades or gradients.
Easy clean-up: Water-based inks are water-soluble, making them easy to clean up after printing. Tools, screens, and equipment can be
