"Plastisol ink is a liquefied (PVC) polyvinyl chloride. PVC is by far the most environmentally damaging plastic.The plasticizers used in plastisol ink to make the PVC flexible are carcinogenic and harmful to the environment, particularly when they evaporate or leach into food. They are released into the environment during the printing and curing of the plastisol ink and they will continue to exhaust toxins when exposed to a radiant heat source such as a house hold dryer or even sunlight." -more...
