Mutoh and Grafityp have obtained an Indoor Air Comfort Certificate (IAC) for the Grafityp Ecological non-PVC self-adhesive film (GEF-ES) printed with Mutoh Universal Mild Solvent (UMS) inks.
This product certificate issued by Eurofins, an independent test organisation and world market leader for Volatile Organic Chemical (VOC) product emission testing, guarantees full compliance with all regulations on VOC emissions into indoor air that exist in any EU Member state. Certification involved test chamber testing of printed film with maximum possible 
ink coverage, VOC measurement for some 200 VOCs after three and 28 days as well as an in-depth third party audit of the production sites.
Stephan Heintjens, Mutoh Belgium’s Product Development Manager said, 'This product certificate demonstrates Mutoh’s commitment in offering digital printers and inks that provide environmental protection and sustainability. Our UMS inks have been specifically formulated to offer a unique and innovative blend of high quality durable colour pigments, a new mix of resins and, last but not least, a new combination of milder and non-aggressive solvents.'
'At Grafityp we are delighted with this important environmental acknowledgement,' said Harald Jumelet, Grafityp’s Sales & Marketing Manager. 'This pan-European IAC product certificate assures that wide format prints made on our Grafityp Ecological Film printed with Mutoh UMS inks will contribute to the comfort and well-being of building inhabitants. It will assist building owners, brand owners, planners, indoor decorators and architects to select low polluting products and to achieve good Indoor Air Quality.'
