SHAWNEE, SHAWNEE, KS ­ Nazdar announces the introduction of ImageStar® Eco Blend, a new line of press and screen washes designed to comply with today’s air quality standards. Eco Blend products have been formulated with a reduced number of volatile organic compounds (VOC) to ensure the products meet EPA and specific state’s 2005 regulations. All ImageStar Eco Blend products meet the SCAQMD 100 grams per liter VOC regulation.

The new ImageStar Eco Blend line includes a graphic screen wash, press wash, textile screen wash and textile press wash.
