What defines GOTS inks?
GOTS inks meet the strict criteria of the Global Organic Textile Standard with regard to ingredients, environmental compatibility and social production conditions. Full certification is decisive for a demonstrably sustainable end product.
The typical use of GOTS inks is clearly structured:
- The certified ink is selected to match your GOTS-certified textile
- Printing takes place through the screen onto the textile, as with regular textile printing inks
- A final drying or fixing process ensures permanent curing
- The complete certification chain remains traceable from raw material to finished print
GOTS inks thus ideally complement our water-based inks and are a sensible addition to our discharge inks.
Why GOTS inks are indispensable
GOTS inks play an important role for credible sustainability promises to your customers. Only with a full, independently verified certification can sustainability be demonstrated across the entire production chain.
The most important advantages include:
- Independently certified: Demonstrably verified ingredients and production conditions
- PVC- and phthalate-free: Environmentally friendly formulation without compromises in print quality
- High opacity: Plastisol-like printing properties even on dark textiles. Your individual textile is decisive for the choice.
- Wash-resistant results: Up to 60°C with proper processing
- Ideal for sustainable fashion labels: Popular for collections with organic cotton or fair trade standards
This makes GOTS inks indispensable both for individual sustainable special editions and for consistently certified collections.
What aspects need to be considered?
With GOTS inks, the focus is on both a specific certified product and the significance of the standard itself.
