Moss has introduced a 100% post-consumer waste recycled dye-sub printable material called SustainaTex Ocean into the UK market.
The company said that fabric – initially launched in the US – is ideal for silicone edged graphic (SEG) applications. It is made from 62% Seaqual yarn, a traceable material produced from upcycled marine plastic retrieved from oceans, beaches, rivers, and estuaries by the Seaqual Initiative, with the remainder from recycled polyester.
“The introduction of SustainaTex Ocean in the UK underlines our unwavering dedication to sustainability,” said Moss UK managing director Michael Green. “This fabric provides our clients with another high-quality, environmentally friendly option for their graphics and displays. We are place makers, and that means we also want to make our oceans a better place, too. This partnership is the perfect way to help keep our oceans clean and minimise our clients’ environmental impact.”
Moss printed SustainaTex Ocean graphics can also be sent back to the company for re-processing, ensuring a responsible end-of-life for the product.
