Thank You Boris

I will pass the link on to the relevant contact at Wilflex, however, I am hearing it is almost impossible to speak with someone there

Sure this is just the standard they don't give any certification.
It is easy for one of your chemist to see if you can comply or not with the standard.


Then you have to be assessed to get the certification

Hi willy35

Thanks for the links - are you planning on going totally NPVC? 

I have actually visited your shop some years ago - I think we met at the Lyon show 2009 and then I came to your place in Brittany at some point  where you had 1 M&R 12 colour machine and were using roller frames which I thought was pretty impressive :-) Not a typical set up.

How are things today - hope you are still progressing the way you set out to do

all the best

Phil

Hey Philip, that brought us back in 2008 

There has been a lot of water under the bridge since, we change for a bigger place, 2 autos now and a 3rd in a near future I hope !


Totally NPVC is our goal, but not at all cost !
We are 50/50 PVC/NPVC
2016 is Gots certification for us, we use GOTS ink water based and oil based, and still look at new NPVC ink.

After speaking with some EU Wilflex resellers, they told me Wilflex one could be on the market in april.
I am eager to test it !

Thank you for refreshing my memory !
