what is eco-tattooing ?
the movement
Eco-tattooing is a movement to reduce the heavy environmental impact of the industry by eliminating single-use plastics & prioritizing sustainable practices.
Eco-tattoo shops & their clients are actively reducing the negative impact on our planet while still achieving the same tattoo results.
industry impact
Tattooing is a medical procedure that generates a significant amount of waste due to the need for single-use instruments & personal protective equipment.
North American tattoo shops produce 2,000 pounds of plastic garbage daily, totaling 46 million pounds per year!
leading change
Moonlit Fangs Tattoo is one of only 20 eco-certified shops in BC, Canada. Practices are built around accountability. Supplies are chosen for sustainability & lesser impact.
Moonlit Fangs partners only with eco suppliers & continuously evaluates environmental practices in order to make improvements.
resources
Gatekeeping information can sometimes eliminate progress that could Instead be made. I would love if other artists and shops considered making sustainable changes to help eliminate the negative impact this industry makes on our planet.
