Climate change is real. The world is becoming less inhabitable with each passing day. Amidst all this, it's our duty to make efforts to conserve our environment. One such example is of the De-printer — yes, you heard it right.
De-printer, as the name suggests is not a usual printer; it's a new innovation developed by an Israeli firm, Reep Technologies.
To see what it really does, you just have to put an already printed paper into the tray and you'd see the De-printer stripping off all the ink with the help of laser and giving out a shiny clean sheet on the other side — as if it was never printed. The best part is you can use the same paper up to 10 times. The process makes printed paper reusable, or, re-printable, to be accurate.
The parent company believes that its technology will help save the environment by reducing paper consumption, which in return will minimize deforestation. They have coined a new term for this — circular printing.
We should keep in mind that the paper industry depends on mass deforestation, and to have the desirable crystal clear white sheet, you require a lot of water, which consumes a lot of energy, and that emits greenhouse gases.
De-printing technology seems like a godsend gift in the times we are living in. Let's hope it is adopted by everyone in the market in a mission to save mother Earth!
