First, let's talk about the printing ink of canvas bags from the viewpoint of waterproofing. There are two kinds of commonly used printing materials, one is water-based glue and the other is oil-based ink. From waterproof

If you look at these two materials from the point of view, the water-based glue is definitely not waterproof, and the color will fade easily when it gets wet. Therefore, for many bags that need to be exposed to water, water is not recommended

Second, from an environmental protection point of view, water-based glue has more advantages than oil-based inks.

Thirdly, in terms of cost, water-based glue is a relatively high-end printing material. Similarly, it can also be called an environmental protection material.
