The first step was to remove our existing inks. Existing inventory was documented and packaged for safe removal prior to cleaning and before our new inventory arrived, this was done to avoid any possibility of cross contamination. Approximately 6,000 lbs. of ink was packaged for removal, that's 3 tons!
Every inch of our Ink Department was meticulously cleaned to avoid cross contamination.
It took an entire day for our team to thoroughly clean the Ink Department. We have heard many times throughout the years that our operation is the "cleanest in the industry", even so the work had to be done to avoid cross contamination.
Existing squeegee blades were removed, squeegee holders were thoroughly cleaned to avoid cross contamination.
New squeegee blades were installed to avoid cross contamination.
Emptied and clean shelving was now ready for new inventory.
New eco-friendly inks and additives were brought in subsequent to the removal of existing ink inventory. New inks were documented and inventoried.
