About Superior Ink

Superior Ink has made conscious decisions as a company to improve on our sustainable efforts every day. We are focused on sustainability, implementing eco-friendly practices, and building a community within the textile industry to become better together for future generations and our industry.

Sustainability is a major issue in the textile industry. Being sustainable in our industry is about much more than the use of organic cotton and better working conditions. It’s also about finding sustainable ways to consume water and energy, and discard chemicals.

WHAT DOES SUSTAINABILITY MEAN?

WHAT SUSTAINABILITY MEANS TO SUPERIOR INK PRINTING:

Focusing on meeting the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their needs. The concept of sustainability is composed of three pillars: economic, environmental, and social—also known informally as profits, planet, and people.Each and every day we try to demonstrate necessary practices to help take care of the environment. By undertaking unique environmental projects including using recycled content fabrics, switching to low-VOC inks, and replacing older presses with new, high-efficiency presses.

There are 3 big current sustainable issues within the textile industry:

•Water and energy consumption

•The availability of sustainable raw materials

•The effects of waste production
