Want to let your customers know how you’re choosing the planet? We’ve officially launched a collection of printable assets designed to highlight your use of eco-friendly Screen Algae Ink. Whether you’re highlighting your latest apparel drop with garment tags or decorating your storefront, these downloadable materials make your brand’s differentiation crystal clear.
In the world of eco-friendly screen printing, the choices you make on the press build a foundation of trust with your customers. For a long time, "going green" felt like a compromise between performance and responsibility. Those days are over. With the introduction of algae-based pigment, you can offer a product that has a growing sustainable story.
Turn Better Ink into a Compelling Brand Story
The transition to a sustainable shop model is a strategic opportunity to stand out in a crowded market. When you pivot toward sustainable practices, you stop competing on price and start competing on purpose. By implementing supplies like Living Ink Modern Black or Vintage Black Screen Algae Ink, you give your customers a reason to choose your shop over a competitor fighting for the lowest bid.
People want to feel good about the clothes they wear. They want to know that their favorite t-shirt didn't come at the cost of the planet. Most customers don't realize that the pigment in their shirt is usually derived from fossil fuels. They need you to show them a better way. This is why we created the "It's Alive" assets for shops utilizing Screen Algae Ink™ technology. These tools provide the proof your customers need to understand the value of a carbon-negative print.

Consider Other Ways to Scale Your Sustainability
Algae Ink is a powerful start, but a truly sustainable shop looks at the entire production cycle to find hidden efficiencies and cost savings. Consider how other areas of your shop can contribute to a cleaner planet and a healthier bottom line:
- Chemical Systems: Swap traditional solvents for the Sgreen Chemistry line to use biodegradable, citrus-based reclaim and cleanup solutions.
- Energy Efficiency: Use low-cure additives like Warp Drive or quartz flash units to lower your power bill and reduce heat in the shop.
- Waste Reduction: Ditch disposable tapes for reusable systems like PrintGRIP to keep consumables out of the landfill and money in your pocket.
- The Right Substrate: Pair Algae Ink with Allmade® Apparel to offer a complete story of recycled materials, organic cotton, and ethical labor.

Proven Performance Meets Marketing Storytelling
Trust is the most valuable currency in our industry. When you are honest about your materials and your process, you build a bond with your community. The Algae Ink marketing kit is a toolkit for growth. It gives customers a reason to buy that goes beyond a cool design: it's a climate-positive choice.
Algae Ink matches conventional ink quality for modern deep black or warmer, "vintage" black finishes without the hidden costs of petroleum. By using these posters and tags, you are educating your community on what is possible in modern apparel decoration. Pigment and ink are produced right here in the U.S. using California-grown algae and Colorado-made ink, giving you a transparent production story that resonates.
