What Makes Corporate Apparel More Eco-Friendly?
When companies talk about eco-friendly apparel, they’re usually referring to two main factors:
🌱 1. The Garment
Eco-conscious apparel often includes:
Soft, lightweight shirts designed for digital printing
Fabrics that use efficient production processes
Garments built to last longer (reducing waste over time)
Underground Printing offers a wide selection of apparel well-suited for modern digital printing methods that support sustainability-minded programs.
💧 2. The Ink & Printing Method
This is where digital printing stands out.
Digital Printing = Water-Based Inks
Digital printing uses water-based inks that:
Feel soft to the touch
Absorb directly into the fabric
Require no heavy plastisol layers
Work especially well on lighter-weight garments
This makes digital printing a popular choice for companies looking for a more eco-friendly decoration method.
Why Digital Printing Is Ideal for Eco-Conscious Corporate Apparel
Digital printing checks many boxes for sustainability-focused programs.
✔ Uses water-based inks
✔ Minimal setup waste
✔ Excellent for detailed, full-color designs
✔ Great for small runs or variable designs
✔ Soft, modern print feel
It’s especially popular for:
Corporate t-shirts
Event shirts
Onboarding kits
Can Eco-Friendly Apparel Still Look Professional? Absolutely.
One misconception we hear is that eco-friendly apparel means compromising on appearance. That’s not true.
When paired correctly:
Digital printing delivers clean, vibrant designs
Embroidery adds a premium touch where needed
Modern garments look polished and intentional
Many companies mix methods—for example:
Digitally printed t-shirts for events
Embroidered polos or quarter zips for daily wear
Underground Printing helps you choose the right combination for your brand.
