BRC ink ratings
The National Association of Printing Ink Manufacturers (NAPIM) BioRenewable Content (BRC) program identifies the use of bio-derived renewable resources in printing ink formulations. Our inks have a Bio Renewable Content rating of 40 & 70 and vegetable-based rather than petroleum-based. Soy-based inks are available, however, the drying time is longer than vegetable-based inks.
Press solvents
“Green” alternatives exist for pressroom solvents, even though they do not get much attention. On the heat set web side, almost all pressroom chemicals in the past have been petroleum-based. These chemicals emit volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and require the solvents to be burned off in the oven. Data Reproduction has been using a “green” alternative for roller wash and fountain solutions for many years. It is a non-petroleum-based product made from farm crops and their byproducts. This “green” chemistry has zero VOC’s and they reduce the consumption of gas (heat), ink and water. We have reduced oven temperatures approximately 30%; savings of water and ink approximately 25% to 40%. Not all printers are using this pressroom chemistry, even with the financial benefits gained from conserving energy, ink and water. Further information about these chemicals can be researched on the manufacturer’s web site at www.amerikal.com
Waste paper recycling
Nearly 100% of our paper waste and corrugated material generated is recycled. At Data Reproductions, we recycle book trimmings, roll wraps, roll cores, corrugated containers, glues, etc.
