Single Needle Launches Vegan Tattoo Ink for Stick and Poke Artists


Posted February 6, 2021 by singleneedle

Leading online tattoo supply shop now stocks planet-friendly ink for hand poke artists.
 
Single Needle is a renowned online tattoo supply shop that caters specifically to hand poke tattoo artists in the UK and abroad. They currently stock a wide range of products and have now added a vegan ink to their online catalogue, which means that artists have a wider range of options when selecting their inks, and can choose the planet-friendly alternative.

Vegan tattoo artists will delight in the fact that this popular retailer now has a plant-based ink on their shelves as regular tattoo ink can present a problem for Earth warriors due to its ingredients. Regular black tattoo ink gets its inky black colour from the addition of bone char, which is, of course, the biggest red flag for vegan artists or those that would like to cater to vegan clients. Non-vegan black tattoo ink will also include other ingredients such as animal-derived glycerin, which will act as a stabiliser, as well as gelatin which is made from the connective tissue of cows and pigs. Some inks will also have shellac added as a binding agent and this is made from the crushed shells of beetles.

The big difference between regular tattoo ink and vegan tattoo ink is that vegan ink uses either logwood or carbon to intensify its black colour, and it will include vegetable-based glycerin instead of an animal-based one, as well as ethanol or witch hazel. This makes it a plant-based alternative for tattoo artists on the hunt for vegan inks.

“Although we still stock regular tattoo ink, we realised how important it was to include a plant-based alternative option for our clients,” says Steven Furness, Media Manager of Single Needle. “We pride ourselves on the wide range of products on offer at Single Needle and have seen a high demand for the newly-added vegan ink in our shop.”

The vegan ink stocked by Single Needle is the Intenze ink, of which the most popular is the black liner. The Intenze Lining Black Tattoo Ink is the perfect black for outlining a tattoo. It is considered a must-have for all serious and professional tattoo artists. Intenze tattoo ink is a pre-dispersed ink developed by tattoo artists for tattoo artists. It is a top-quality, vegan-friendly ink made with the strictest quality standards of any tattoo ink on the market.

As more and more people are becoming aware of their impact on the planet, the demand for plant-based alternatives in all industries have grown, and the same can be said for the tattoo market. Vegan inks may well be the preferred tattoo ink of the future.
