The sustainable range includes graphics media, wallpapers and laminates, with new versions Easy Dot PP for water-based inkjet & HP Indigo printers and Easy Dot PET L-UV, a 75-micron polyester film manufactured from 25% post-consumer recycled (PCR) content. 

“Consumers have a growing understanding of the environmental impacts of PVC and plastic waste, and they will continue to drive the trend towards sustainable products,” said Starleaton. “The demand for change from consumers has already led many major brands and large corporations to use only PVC-free materials wherever possible.

“In most cases, monomeric (and to a lesser extent polymeric) self-adhesive PVC print vinyl and PVC coated wallcoverings are the default choice, irrespective of whether they are used indoors or short-term outdoors. This choice is driven by price, performance, and habit, as historically PVC-free products have performed poorly or have been too expensive. Fortunately, this is no longer the case and we have to challenge ourselves to think differently about the materials used in these types of applications. Keeping up with short advertising cycles can be more sustainable with the use of PVC-free products.”

Neschen focuses increasingly on green product alternatives

Over the last decade, Neschen has continued to innovate and optimise the sustainability of its manufacturing processes and product offering which actively contribute to protecting the environment and human health, Ines Eaton, Marketing Manager at Starleaton said. “Its growing range of PVC-free media places Neschen at the forefront of the shift to sustainable alternatives in the digital media and interior design media markets.

“Aside from the obvious environmental and health benefits, Neschen's range of non-PVC digital print media is the perfect eco-friendly alternative to standard PVC films. With no compromise on quality or longevity, they offer an attractive environmentally friendly status along with a high-quality product suitable for various uses including long term indoor uses and short to mid-term outdoor applications.

“From Easy Dot to Wall-Grip, from floor and window graphics to wallpapers and wallcoverings, from protective laminates to mounting films, Neschen has a PVC-free option for almost any interior or short-term exterior application.” 

 Designed for application on flat surfaces, Easy Dot self-adhesive vinyl has the adhesive applied in ‘dots’ rather than in a traditional smooth coating. This allows bubble free and simple application with air being able to travel between the dots. Fire rated, it provides residue-free removal from many surfaces.

PVC free Easy Dot is the best solution for eco-friendly, fast and easy to install and remove promotional graphics on windows, walls and floors.
