Our business philosophy is to ensure that our products are not detrimental to
mankind and our environment, and we strongly practice this across all our
business activities. Upon our further afford in making a greener ink technology
and our environmental concern, we have developed our latest technology in reemulsifying polymer in 2016 which we name it as REi Technology. CSC REi
technology is a proprietary technology by CSC in providing a glycol-free solution
for textile printing industry.
Glycol which categorized as VOC like Ethylene glycol (EG) is commonly used
as a slow drying agent in water-based ink on the market. Ethylene glycol (EG) is
listed as a Toxic Air Contaminant (TAC) and Hazardous Air Pollutant (HAP) under
state and federal regulations of United State. EG and its vapors can be toxic to
humans. Unprotected exposure may cause irritation to skin, eyes, nose, throat
and lungs, and allergic reactions are possible. Overexposure to Ethylene glycol
may lead to nausea, vomiting, drowsiness, and respiratory impairment. Repeated
overexposure can permanently damage the liver and kidneys. Check out the
video below on how REi technology help in providing a glycol-free printing
production.
