Roland DG inks now OEKO-TEX certified

Roland DG has announced that its primers and inks for the Texart XT-640S-DTG printer are now ECO PASSPORT by OEKO-TEX certified. Inks and primers are only awarded the certification after a series of rigorous tests, which dissect if each individual ingredient in the chemical product meets strict conditions. As a result of the certification, the products will now be added to the OEKO-TEX buying guide, the central sourcing platform for pre-certified articles and materials.  ECO PASSPORT is a globally recognised mechanism that guarantees to suppliers of textile chemical colourants and auxiliaries that the chemicals used in the printed image meet regulatory requirements. It means that Roland DG customers including sign, garment, and promotional goods manufacturers can confidently use the printer’s inks and primers in sustainable direct-to-garment print and production.  XT-640S-DTG printer is the latest addition to Roland’s Texart range, which is designed to deliver on-demand reliable and high-quality output, enabling mass customisation of textile products.
