During production we take the following steps to ensure we are taking care of the environment.
Energy Efficient Equipment
Our Direct To Garment equipment and automatic screen printing machines are the lastest standard and designed to be as energy efficient as possible.
Direct To Screen
Screens are prepared using computer to screen technology removing the need for film transparencies which would otherwise need recycling or disposing of.
Water Filtration
Water used during screen production, reclaiming and cleaning is processed through a 5 step filtration system before disposal to remove any unwanted particles.
Screen Reclaiming
Screens are reclaimed in tanks using a zero voc non hazardous solution that is self contained and reused.
Closed Ink System
Our Direct To Garment printers use a closed ink and self cleaning system which eliminates any spillage and minimises waste.
Ink Management
Unused screen printing inks are stored and resued or remixed for future jobs to minimise the requirement for disposal.

Frequently Asked Questions
All of our screen printing and DTG inks hold two key certifications. They are GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) certified, which covers both ecological and social criteria across the entire textile supply chain. They are also ECO PASSPORT by OEKO-TEX® certified, meaning every chemical and colourant used has been independently tested and verified as safe. Both our screen printing and DTG inks are water-based and formaldehyde-free. You can view full compliance details on our ink compliance page.
GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) is the world's leading processing standard for organic textiles. When your merchandise is printed with GOTS certified inks on GOTS certified garments like Stanley/Stella, it means every stage — from raw fibre to finished product — meets strict environmental and social requirements. This gives your customers confidence that your branded products are genuinely sustainable, not just marketed as such. It's a credible, internationally recognised standard that carries real weight with eco-conscious consumers.
Our core range is from Stanley/Stella, a GOTS certified brand that produces organic cotton, recycled polyester and blended garments. Their supply chain is fully audited, with factories that meet Fair Wear Foundation standards for worker welfare. Every garment comes with full traceability from farm to finished product. We've carefully curated our range so that you don't have to spend hours researching which garments are genuinely sustainable — we've already done that for you.
We take a number of steps to minimise waste. Screens are prepared using computer-to-screen technology, eliminating the need for film transparencies. Unused screen printing inks are stored and remixed for future jobs rather than disposed of. Our DTG printers use a closed ink system that prevents spillage. Water used during screen production and cleaning goes through a 5-step filtration system before disposal. Damaged or waste garments are reused for test printing and cleaning before being recycled into materials like carpet underlay or sports equipment. Our packaging is made from FSC certified recycled paper.
Yes — our entire print facility at 16 Whitehouse Street, Bristol runs on 100% renewable energy. That covers everything from our automatic screen printing presses and DTG printers to the lights and the kettle.
