In order to alleviate consumer concerns, color box printing is all about non-toxic and moving towards green printing. Take flexographic printing.

A major problem with ink toxicity is organic solvents, which mainly refer to toluene, xylene, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and their derivatives. They will volatilize into the air with the drying of the ink, which not only pollutes the air, but also poses a threat to the health of printing workers. The other is volatile organic compounds (VOC), which have many types, such as alcohol, ester, ether, ketone, mineral oil, etc. Like aromatic hydrocarbon solvents, it will volatilize as the ink dries, thereby polluting the air. Another major problem with the toxicity of inks is pigments, such as heavy metals in inks. Although most of the inks have reduced the heavy metal content, some people use chrome yellow and chrome red to make inks.

To solve the toxicity problem of color box inks, from a narrow perspective, it is necessary to use green environmentally friendly inks.

There are mainly water-based inks, UV inks, water-based UV inks, and some alcohol-soluble inks. Try to buy some authentic products, pay attention to living habits, and do not let any ink contact the mouth. With the promotion of policies, the greening of color boxes will be accelerated.
