Note: We filled the paper cups to the brim with a water/Oxxolon/Tattoo colors mixture. Even after 8 hours, the paper cup showed no signs of being water permeable.
Why did we use a water/oxolone/tattoo ink mixture? Experience has shown that this is the highest concentration that a biodegradable paper cup must withstand in everyday tattooing.
Tattoo accessories such as cling film, packaging, plastic cups, protective covers, couch covers and other tattoo consumables are an important part of hygienic working in the tattoo studio.
Many tattoo artists already pay attention to vegan tattoo colors and ecological tattoo accessories which is already worth a lot. But apart from animal welfare, we should of course also think about the rest of the environment.
So what if you could not only use animal-friendly materials, but also save a little bit of the environment when tattooing?
THE INKED ARMY ECO FRIENDLY products are made from compostable and biodegradable bioplastic, which means they are mostly made from PLA (polylactide), which is derived from corn starch.
