Algae Ink

Sustainable bio-based ink

This 100% plant-based, renewable, and biodegradable ink is made from algae cells and other plant-based materials. The green pigment is derived from chlorophyll found in cyanobacteria. Other naturally occurring strains produce red, yellow, and orange colours. The ink can be printed with screen, offset, or letterpress printing.

Applications for algae ink:

It is used as a replacement for oil-based inks to print items such as business cards, greeting cards, invitations, and packaging products.

More information:

The ink is available in different shades of green, and other colours are under development. Inks for different printing methods, such as ink-jet printing, are also being developed.

Inspiration for new applications:

Use it to print hang tags for sustainable clothing or instructions for assembling sustainable furniture.
