Deerfield and Co also offers "green" printing on
hemp or organic cotton with QuantumOne. QuantumOne is
non-phthalate, non-PVC Plastisol screen printing ink,
specially formulated by Wilflex USA with the same high
quality and print application standards that you would
expect from the MX series inks. We recognize our
responsibility to the environment and as good citizens
and responsible business owners, we are doing our part
to limit the negative affects of our business on the
environment. Our eco-friendly printing options limit
the hazardous chemicals that contribute to air and
water pollution. It is an unavoidable fact of our
business that some products are going to be harmful,
but we are doing our socially and environmentally
responsible part to provide other options.
Organic cotton is grown using methods that have a low
impact on the environment. Using such methods
protects the health of people and the planet by
reducing the overall exposure to toxic chemicals from
synthetic pesticides that can end up in the ground,
air, water and food supply, and that are associated
with health consequences, from asthma to cancer.
Cotton is the most pesticide-dependent crop in the
world, accounting for 25% of all pesticide use, that
is 50 million pounds of pesticides in the U.S. alone.
Because organic agriculture doesn't use toxic and
persistent pesticides, choosing organic products is an
easy way to help protect yourself and the environment.
Hemp is the worlds strongest natural fiber. It has
been used to make cloth and rope for over 10,000
years. Hemp is stronger, longer lasting, more
resistant to mildew and cheaper to produce than cloth
made of cotton. With a relatively short growth cycle
of 100-120 days, it is an efficient and economical
crop for farmers to grow, also requiring far less
pesticides and water than cotton.
Choosing our green printing options is one way that
our clients can contribute to helping fight our
present environmental crisis.
