Why We Need Digital Printing That Is Eco Friendly

By Anita Ortega


Since the invention of printing, life has never been easier in planet earth. Initially, it involved too much paperwork and wastage of both time and resources. Thing have become better with new methods being invented are more efficient. Sadly though, the problem of waste disposal has persisted. This is because a large percentage of the items used cannot decompose when gotten rid of. To this point, digital printing that is eco friendly is the ultimate solution.

The satisfying fact is that immense change has taken place in comparison to some past years. There is no longer need to worry about energy consumption or space for wastes. The modern products last longer as well. It is only a matter of time and digital printing will be a hundred percent safe. For now, work needs to be done to arrive at the desired results.

Packaging by use of plastics and other non biodegradable products should be discouraged. They normally form a heap which cannot decompose when thrown and managing becomes hectic. Instead, other materials like paper which are disposable are better for this purpose. Still, their durability needs to be improved to prevent people from reverting to plastics.

For the image to be formed on paper, an oil film mixes with an electronic ink. This mixture is in a calculated proportion and it determines the image quality. Caution should be taken to use easily disposable ink and those known for being harmless to the users. Tests should be conducted before disposal to determine the possible environmental impact. Also use oil of good quality which can work more than once.

Every time one prints, there are some freely moving organic compounds that are released into the atmosphere. These can be very dangerous since they might contain harmful atomic energy. Industry players should therefore ensure that their services are offered in compliance with the law which clearly stipulates hazardous air pollutants should not be willfully released into the atmosphere. More research is required in this area to come up with safer alternatives.

Also worth considering is the ozone layer. Potentially harmful substances to the ozone if detoxified, greatly reduces problematic situations. In unavoidable circumstances, the duration of exposure should be kept at a minimum. Cartridges known for having been used are better handled carefully too. Serious regulations on ozone depletion exist in all parts of the globe, and ignorance to them is not an option at all.

It is also important to consider the type of ink used previously. It should be non poisonous as the printouts can at times be used for wrapping dugs and edibles. Ingesting such exposes the users to untold harm. There have been recent innovations that use anhydrous ink. This is quite encouraging as it cuts down the cost which could have gone to water. The products are also safer, longer lasting and more appealing.

As the human race continues making use of the options that technology provides, the ultimate goal is to be in a world that is intoxication free. This is a massive exodus to a world where convenience and environmental preservation are highly valued. Pollution will soon be a thing of the past if all goes well. No one will complain if the printing industry embraces eco friendly techniques.
