Printwear & Promotion The Total Promotional Package
Mimaki has achieved the Greenguard Gold Certification for some of its market leading inks.
The inks which have been awarded the certificate include SS21, LX101, LH-100, LUS-150 and LUS-120.
The Greenguard Gold Certification demands stricter certification criteria and considers safety factors to ensure that a product is acceptable for use in environments such as educational and medical facilities.
The Greenguard Environmental Institute issues the Greenguard Certification to help manufacturers create – and help buyers identify – superior products and materials that have low chemical emissions, improving the quality of the air in environments in which the products are used.
Mike Horsten, general manager marketing EMEA at Mimaki Europe, said: “In order to comply with the Greenguard requirements, a company needs to invest in extensive R&D efforts and ongoing commitment to develop the most technologically advanced, as well as the safest inks.
“The reach of Mimaki products is growing at a phenomenal rate. This certification offers us, our customers and the general public peace of mind and extra assurances that our print solutions are entirely suitable for a wide range of applications, including those in schools, healthcare or similarly sensitive environments.”
“This certification follows the achievement of Oeko-Tex skin contact accreditation and re-affirms our commitment to enabling customers to be proactive and creative in a wide range of different market sectors, without any concerns about the safety of the inks they are using.”
