ECO PASSPORT by OEKO-TEX® for inks by Durst

© 2022 Durst Group
Durst is pleased to announce that their P5 Sublifix sublimation inks, are now ECO PASSPORT by OEKO-TEX® certified.

This ink certification completes the overall sustainable package of the P5 TEX iSUB printer, whose breakthrough drying and sublimation concept already enables a massive reduction in energy consumption. 

OEKO-TEX® ECO PASSPORT is an independent certification system for chemicals, colorants and auxiliaries used in the textile and leather industry. During a multistep process, each individual ingredient in the chemical product has been analyzed to meet the statutory requirements. Certified products are safe to human and environmental health, can be used for ecologically responsible textile production and are listed on the OEKO-TEX® Buying Guide (OEKO-TEX® Buying Guide).

OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 compliance of the sublimation inks has always been very important to DURST, this now available independent confirmation by ECO PASSPORT of the P5 Sublifix Inks further confirms their efforts and responsibility to anchor impact reduction as a central argument in their customers' production chains.



Additionally, this certification enables the customers an accelerated and cost-optimized certification process of both, their production chain according to OEKO-TEX® STeP, as well as their final products according to OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100.

Thus, obtaining the ECO PASSPORT certificate for the P5 Sublifix Inks also results in an immediate economic advantage for all customers using these inks.
