Question

Is flexographic printing environmentally friendly?

Answer

Flexographic printing has made real progress on sustainability, and modern flexo can be a genuinely eco-conscious choice.

  • Water-based and UV-curable inks produce low or zero VOC emissions
  • Thinner photopolymer plates cut down on material waste
  • The process runs efficiently on recyclable and compostable substrates

For packaging and label work in particular, flexo pairs well with recycled and biodegradable materials, making it a solid option when environmental impact matters.
