Hey there,
So started a whole redo of the ink room this week, will be completed next week. Involves all of our plastisol and water bases and specialty inks. We have been phthalate free since day one several years ago with QCM inks and now Rutland. Getting ready for printing with the PVC free acrylic inks this spring. Not jumping in head first but want to be ready for it when it hits us. We are a small shop but occasionally the "Big Boys" use us so we have to be ready. Anyway, I just realized that don't all plastic mixing containers have PVC in them? What is the point of the ink sitting in those containers then? I need to ask my buddy at Rutland but just seems odd to me. And I know we will not be compliant as our gas and electric dryers have years and years of plastisol and water base inks already in them. Luckily some of our clients don't care about the compliance thing, they just want the feel and look. Ugh
