Some interesting Facts about PhotoTex:
-
Non-Toxic Composition: PhotoTex is made from a unique, patented fabric material that does not contain harmful chemicals or toxins. This makes it safe for both human health and the environment. Unlike some traditional wall decals and adhesives that may emit volatile organic compounds (VOCs), PhotoTex does not release harmful fumes into the air.
-
Recyclable: PhotoTex is typically made from recyclable materials, which means it can be collected and processed to create new products at the end of its life cycle. This reduces the overall environmental impact of the material and helps to reduce waste.
-
Reusability: One of the standout features of PhotoTex is its re-positionable and removable nature. Unlike many traditional wall coverings or adhesives, PhotoTex can be easily peeled off and repositioned without leaving residue or causing damage to surfaces. This reusability reduces the need for replacement materials, ultimately reducing waste and conserving resources.
-
Durability: PhotoTex is known for its durability, even in outdoor environments. Its long-lasting nature means that it doesn't need to be replaced frequently, further reducing its environmental footprint.
-
Water-Based Adhesive: PhotoTex typically uses a water-based adhesive that is both effective and less harmful to the environment compared to solvent-based adhesives. Water-based adhesives have lower VOC emissions and are less polluting during manufacturing and application.
-
Energy Efficiency: The production process of PhotoTex often requires less energy compared to other materials like vinyl. This reduced energy consumption contributes to a lower carbon footprint during manufacturing.
-
Packaging: Along with using PhotoTex for our decals, we use eco-friendly packaging materials, such as recycled cardboard or minimal plastic, to reduce waste and environmental impact during shipping.
-
Local Production: Our decals are produced in-house in Australia, meaning it reduces the carbon footprint associated with transportation, as it doesn't need to be shipped long distances.
-
Less Water Usage: Unlike some traditional wallpaper materials that require substantial water usage during installation, PhotoTex does not need water for application. This helps conserve water resources.
-
Less Waste: Due to its re-positionable and removable qualities, PhotoTex generates less waste during installation and removal compared to traditional wallpaper or wall coverings that may be damaged during the process and need replacement.
It would also be important to mention the type of Ink we use when printing our decals: Aqueous inks.
Aqueous inks are water-based, and they have a lower VOC content compared to solvent-based inks. Aqueous inks emit fewer harmful VOC fumes during printing. A big factor when choosing our choice of printer for our decals.
Overall, we're proud to create our decals with PhotoTex, a material that's as beautiful as it is responsible.
