Why does Living Ink use biomass waste from algae to produce our black #pigment and #ink products?

1️⃣ Carbon Capture
#Algae is one of the most productive plants on earth. Grown using sunlight as power and CO2 as building blocks, algae naturally sequester CO2 from the atmosphere. 

2️⃣ Oxygen Production
Algae also creates massive amounts of oxygen. Did you know that over half the oxygen we breathe comes from oceanic algae?

3️⃣ Prolific Growth
Growing algae requires minimal land and less water usage compared to traditional crops, ensuring zero contribution to deforestation or the displacement of land and other resources for food production. At Earthrise Nutritionals' farm, where we source our algae byproduct, the pond-grown algae are harvested daily.

4️⃣ Turning waste into value
Living Ink intentionally uses algae #wastestreams. We provide a responsible waste disposal solution for our partners who are already cultivating algae for purposes like spirulina nutritional supplements. This prevents the leftover biomass from decomposing in a landfill where it would emit greenhouse gases.

We are grateful to Everybody.World, makers of recycled cotton custom merch, for including our Screen Algae Ink™ in their collections exploring sustainability in apparel.  This collection was knit, sewn, and finished with livable wages, and minimal waste in Los Angeles. Printing was done in partnership with James Shaff and the team at Let Go Printing.

By incorporating Algae Ink™ into designs, brands can reduce waste in landfills, lower carbon emissions, and remove petroleum-based colors from their production. 

Living Ink works with screen printers in the US and globally to meet high performance and sustainability goals. If you are curious about incorporating renewable, waste stream inks into your custom merch or apparel lines, get in touch with us!

Big adventures and easy livin' with Algae Ink™ in the mountains of Montana. 🗻 

The recently launched Evo Cairn collection from Missoula-based sporting goods brand, Bedrock Sandals, comes in a newly designed box - printed using our Flexographic Algae Ink on recycled cardboard. The outdoors-inspired design was hand drawn by Bedrock’s Director of Operations and printed in the USA by the sustainable packaging experts at EcoEnclose. 

Our Flexographic Algae Ink™ is made from renewable biomass waste, offers a sustainable alternative to carbon black pigmented inks, and is well suited for corrugated packaging.
