Lowest Impact to Climate Change
Scodix, when compared to traditional embellishment methods, offers a significant reduction in negative environmental impact. To assess this impact, we commissioned a comprehensive Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) study conducted by EcamRicert srl and Sher Consulting and Training (Mérieux NutriSciences Companies), which compared the environmental impact of Scodix and Traditional Hot Stamp Technologies. The study examined the effects of the full embellishment process on climate change. The results of the study were remarkable. Scodix proved to be 7x more efficient and outranked the strain on natural resources; Scodix saves 80% of water and 85% of emissions and energy in the embellishment process.

Brands and consumers are driving circular supply chains to a more sustainable society as reducing, reusing, and recycling practices help to minimize our ecological footprint.
Scodix embellished products are certified recyclable having passed the Western Michigan University SBS Equivalency (WMU SBS E) testing protocol and intersoh tests for recyclability. Scodix digitally embellished sheets passed the WMU SBS-E protocol with a score of 98.8% qualifying for recycling and repulping.
