Roland DTF Products ECO PASSPORT Certified

Roland DGA Corporation (Irvine, CA) announced that the ink and powder for the Roland DG VersaSTUDIO BN-20D, a compact Direct-To-Film (DTF) transfer printer, have acquired OEKO- TEX ECO PASSPORT certification, an international standard that guarantees the safety of textile products — according to a press release from the company.

OEKO-TEX consists of independent institutes in Europe and Japan, with offices around the globe, working to achieve the standards of safety and sustainable production worldwide. ECO PASSPORT is an independent certification system for chemicals, colorants and auxiliaries used in the textile industry verifying that each individual ingredient in chemical products meets the statutory requirements and is not harmful to human health. The BN-20D is a desktop inkjet printer that produces DTF output which can be transferred not only to cotton garments, but also polyester, cotton-polyester, denim, nylon and rayon — per the press release.

“We are constantly striving to develop safer and more environmentally friendly digital solutions, and the BN-20D direct-to-film system is just one example,” Daniel Valada, Roland DGA’s product manager of digital print, is quoted in the release. “This innovative system makes enhancing garments with vibrant detailed graphics quick and easy. Now, with the newly earned ECO PASSPORT certification, users can rest assured that the customized clothing they create is also safe for people of all ages to wear.”
