Hostmann-Steinberg: Environmental Products

ENVIRONMENTAL INK GOAL

While many ink companies have concentrated on the Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) content of their inks, at Hostmann-Steinberg we believe there is more to consider than just this one single aspect. As an active member of NAPIM and the Sustainable Green Printing Partnership, we have pursued a credible goal of quality printing inks, which meet the highest possible content of renewable and sustainable raw materials.

BIO RENEWABLE CONTENT

Most of Hostmann-Steinberg !NKREDIBLE inks contain 70% Bio Renewable Content (BRC). The !NKREDIBLE Reflecta,
!NKREDIBLE Hard Dry Resista, !NKREDIBLE Perfexion and Envira inks all carry this accreditation.

ENVIRA ZVOC - LOW VOC CONTENT

Formulated from the purest of materials, and designed to consistently maintain our high standard of print quality, we are now in a position to offer this new range of inks with an overall VOC content of less than 3% (based on 3rd Party testing to EPA Method 24) for your testing and evaluation.

“The changes we make today is our quality of life for tomorrow."
