Sustainability is one of the greatest challenges of our times, and is shaping the identity of brands worldwide. To be successful in the market, you have to operate credibly in a closed loop. When it comes to sustainability, transfer finishing already has a lot to offer: Just the smallest application of decoration is enough to create an enormous variety of designs in an exceptional quality and brilliance - not only dry, save and emission-free, but also without affecting the recyclability of end products. The production of our transfer decorations is not only wastewater-free, energy efficient and its ingredients certified, we are now the only manufacturer in the industry to convert the PET transfer carrier from waste material to valuable raw material.
