GOING GREEN♻️🌎
We have taken some steps to conserve resources, reduce consumption and reduce environmental pollutants. Below is a list of some of the measures we have taken.
- Instead of renting an office/workshop, everything is made in my living room.
- We do not outsource for products or use POD (print on demand *eww*), we use locally sourced sublimation blanks and then print/cut/press/package and ship each item individually from our living room.
- Our shirts come from southern California, as well as tumblers, air freshener blanks, fragrance oil scents, and pinback button supplies.
- Instead of renting an office/workshop, everything is made in my living room.
- We reduce consumption by owning and fixing equipment instead of replacing it and filling landfills (and poverty).
- We print designs for shirts, tumblers, air fresheners, coasters, mousepads, keychains, glass frames, and ornaments with an Epson Ecotank-15000 printer (large format, no cartridges, and ink saving beauty)
- Pinback button designs, thank you cards, order receipts, display cards, greeting cards, and stickers are printed on an Epson Ecotank-3850 printer - saving ink, free of cartridges, and saves us from having to outsource.
- Shipping labels, tumbler labels, and product packaging stickers are printed on a thermal printer that is 100% ink free.
- We use Eco-friendly, bio-degradable inks and chemicals.
- We use a pre-owned heat press from Fancier Studio in Hayward, California.
- Faulty items are donated to Napa Solano NA Subcommittees for prizes, the Vacaville Alano Club, newcomers, and for other events around the area. Screw waste.
