As a leading supplier of large-format advertising materials, MehlerHeytex is presenting a sustainable product range under the HEYtex® brand at FESPA in Berlin. With the innovative ecotex® portfolio, the PVC-free, recycled and CO2-compensated material solution, the company wants to show new ways for environmentally conscious printing.
New launches in the textile and banner sector
According to the manufacturer, the expanded ecotex® portfolio offers a wide variety of sustainable textiles and banners for a wide range of indoor and outdoor applications. These include new materials with improved technical properties, innovative coatings and greater print brilliance and ease of processing.
ecotex® – sustainable advertising
According to Heytex, the materials are free from PVC, phthalates and heavy metals and are made from 100 per cent recycled yarns in accordance with GRS 4.0, which is said to reduce the CO2 footprint by up to 62 per cent compared to conventional virgin polyester. With a seamless print width of up to 505 centimetres, excellent colour reproduction and versatile processing properties, ecotex® is the ideal solution for a sustainable advertising presence.
Exhibition stand made from recycled PET bottles
The exhibition stand emphasises the brand’s ecological claim and was made entirely from materials obtained from almost 800 recycled PET bottles. The MehlerHeytex team is looking forward to welcoming visitors to stand B38 in hall 3.2 at the Berlin trade fair.
