APE-Free Water-Based Sublimation Inks

BURGA uses water-based sublimation inks to print designs onto its phone cases, which are classified as eco-friendly due to being free from Alkylphenol ethoxylates (APEs) — a class of chemical surfactants harmful to aquatic ecosystems. The use of water-based inks also preserves the recyclability of the polycarbonate case material, ensuring the print process does not compromise end-of-life recovery options
