# Ink – DTG

# Ink – DTG

**Kornit Digital and Our Printing Process**
At Promio, we use **Kornit Digital**, the only digital textile printing technology that enables **single-step pigment printing using a “wet-on-wet” process**.
Why is this beneficial for both us and you? Because it ensures **fast, high-quality, cost-efficient, and environmentally friendly production**.


**What is “Wet-on-Wet” Printing?**
With our Kornit systems, external pre- and post-treatment processes are no longer required. We apply a fixation layer directly onto the fabric and immediately follow it with a layer of proprietary inks.
All of this happens in **one integrated step**, making the production process faster and more efficient.


**Are the Materials Environmentally Friendly?**
Yes. The fixation agents and inks we use are composed of substances that comply with **TSCA, REACH, and other certified standards**. They are also certified as:
* **Vegan**
* **OEKO-TEX Eco Passport**
* **GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard)**
* **ZDHC (Zero Discharge of Hazardous Chemicals)**
Additionally, they meet various **MRSL and RSL requirements**.
Our systems are specifically designed to work only with these certified chemicals, ensuring that all printed materials meet strict industry standards for sustainability.


**How Does This Process Reduce CO₂ Emissions?**
Because we use a **single-step printing process**, we significantly reduce the consumption of water and energy, while also lowering greenhouse gas emissions compared to traditional analog printing methods.
A life cycle analysis (LCA) of the Presto S roll-to-roll direct-to-fabric system shows reductions of up to:
* **83% less greenhouse gas emissions**
* **95% less water usage**
* **94% less energy consumption**…compared to conventional alternatives.
