FOREARTH
Sustainable Digital Textile Printer
FOREARTH is an inkjet textile printer that eliminates virtually all water usage from textile printing, thereby reducing water pollution related to printing which is an issue in the apparel industry. Compared to conventional analog dye textile printing, FOREARTH reduces water usage by 99%*, and our proprietary pigment ink enables printing on various fabrics while maintaining its softness. In addition, because it does not rely on water, it can be installed anywhere and reduces distribution costs and inventory. We developed this printer with the aim of coexisting with the Earth. *Based on Kyocera research, in 2022
