Sustainable T-Shirt Printing

The number one envi­ron­mental risk factor in textiles is water pollution.­ Did you know that the volume of water used in conventional dyeing and textile print processes could fill the Medit­­er­­ra­­nean Sea every two years? The amount of water currently used, wasted, and polluted is staggering.

The industry shift towards digital printing goes a long way towards reducing its envi­ron­mental impact, and Kornit’s technologies are leading this effort with a 100% waterless process utilized in every single printing system we manufacture. No pre-tre­at­ments, steaming, or washing required. As a result, our methods lead to ethical t-shirt printing practices. 
 

Our water-based NeoPigment™ inks are absolutely free of heavy metals, formaldehyde and Alkylphenol Ethoxylates (APE), making them non-hazardous, non-toxic and biodeg­­ra­­dable.

As part of our waterless printing system, our biodeg­ra­dable ink and energy saving process makes Kornit an eco-friendly printing solution, leading to sustainable t-shirt printing.
 

Protecting the environment is not just a trend; sustainable t-shirt printing has been part of our global strategy since day one. One of our most serious commitments is to follow new research and public campaigns focused on the envi­ron­mental impact of textile dyeing and printing facilities.

We strive to reduce the environmental footprint of our company, our partners, and our customers.  Through constant innovation, adjustments and dedication, we aim to not only meet the ever-changing industry standards, but surpass them.
 

Many companies in the textile and apparel supply chain are proactively working to ensure their products are free of restricted substances. They subsequently receive relevant certi­­fica­­tions providing assurances that printing on their textiles and garments will not involve hazardous substances, and deem their products safe and sellable everywhere.

Moving to digital printing is an envi­­ron­­mental, cost-effective and higher quality option for your apparel and textile printing needs and is the first step in leaving the toxic trail behind forever in favour of ethical t-shirt printing.
