Printing vinyls or polypropylene – the clash of the old with the new is lasting. The change in thinking about printing is the fact. Of course the price still plays the important role. Therefore, on this field the printing vinyl is always the winner. However, it is not the only one field there is. Therefore, the other aspects become weighing. Namely – the ecological ones. The market changes and also the customers. Certainly the law-makers in EU zone leave no doubts about the fate of vinyl based printing products. Printing propylene or polyethylene will eventually win this battle.

What is this battle all about? The main reason why printing vinyls are unwelcome is its ecological impact. The material has many values – no doubt. Especially when its produced accordingly to the highest standards. These standards confirmed by REACH certificate. The big problem with PVC starts when after it is used. It is problematic to store, also its difficult to recycle.
