Technology To Sustainable Digital Printing

By Christa Jarvis


Through the ages the processes in which man conveys information has over time evolved from the primitive painting and drawing on cave walls to the advanced and sophisticated detailed printing. This new type of medium incorporates environmentally friendly strategies to guarantee a desirable green world by it being made sustainable. It strives to meet the need of our current generation without compromising the need of the future generation. This has been made possible through sustainable digital printing.

This new system importance is that, because sustainability requires continuous and complex processes then it will require joint input from all department in the manufacturing industry. This will create an interdependence form between industries. The manufacturing industries will then be competitive while on the other hand employing the green technology.

The process also has main codes that are incorporated in the sustainably printing. One, product consist of proposals, produce outcome as well as the resource channel into particular manufacturing process. Two, process brings about this making of print used before printing process, definite print as well as those after printing process. Lastly envelope deals with the preservation of the undertakings at manufacturing firm such like workers who for a particular firm and also upkeep practices.

Recycling opportunities are maximized. This is because of harvesting of the renewable energy as from the sources as well as conservation of the scarce resources that results in lowering the levels of the waste. These can be attained through utilization of environmental sound vegetable based ink on the printing press, which have got no any petroleum emulsions, consumable wastage and lower ink, minimal waste of ready-made paper as well as better energy rating hence extra energy efficiency.

There are steps to make this system more sustainable, one, use of biodegradable and renewable materials. This includes the use of vegetable based inks which are petroleum free and also don't contain heavy metals. This makes the production of these materials safe and hence they will be able to perform the so important function well.

Secondly, consider the use of modular products. The products are easily recycled at the end of their life span but are also easy to repair or update in case of wearing out. This is possible because of the making of custom solution with standardized materials. Making it easy for production and shipment hence lowering the energy consumptions throughout the products life.

The other factor to put into consideration is the size matter. This could be archived by reducing the use of paper by designing smaller pieces e. G. Cutting off an inch off the booklet height without compromising the integrity of the design. Use of lightweight products reduces carbon emission and also eases the cost of shipping. The type of font should also be considered, light font are not only easy to read and elegant but are also ink efficient compared to bold fonts.

Everybody would like to live in a world that is friendly and pleasing to the eyes. Hence taking care of the environment is a collective responsibility. We must all join our hand together and say no to activities that would deprive us a good environment worth living in even in years to come . So that we can all look back and be proud our hand work
