Sustainability – Smarter Printing & Longer-Lasting Uniforms

At NS Promo, we believe sustainable printing is about more than eco-friendly inks. It’s about choosing durable garments, efficient production and reduced waste so every print job lasts longer and impacts less.

Our approach to sustainable printing

  • Eco-conscious inks: Water-based pigment inks for DTF and DTG printing reduce harsh chemical use and clean up with water.
  • Energy-efficient production: Modern equipment minimises heat exposure and shortens press time.
  • Durability = sustainability: Garments and prints built to last mean fewer replacements and less textile waste.

Responsible garment choices

  • Quality fabrics: Choosing pre-shrunk cotton, blends and recycled fibres reduces shrinkage and increases wear life.
  • Workwear focus: Long-wearing polos, shirts and jackets designed to hold up on site and in wash cycles.
  • Neutral base colours: Black, navy and charcoal options resist fading and extend the uniform’s lifespan.

Reducing waste in production

  • On-demand printing: Only the quantities you need are printed, reducing excess stock and landfill risk.
  • Efficient layout: DTF film sheets are ganged up to minimise material offcuts.
  • Digital-first process: No screens, no plates, no chemical baths.

Packaging & delivery

  • Minimal packaging: Orders packed with recyclable satchels or cartons.
  • Sydney-based fulfilment: Local production reduces freight miles and turnaround times.
  • Batch dispatch: Grouped deliveries for bulk orders where possible.

Why sustainability matters

Corporate teams, schools and clubs are under growing pressure to reduce environmental impact. Sustainable printing isn’t just about eco-badges—it’s about responsible sourcing, efficient production and long-lasting results that cut costs and consumption over time.
