  Couple of points here...

First, and most importantly, if you are just printing for youth only you don't have to use non-phthalate inks. The non-phthalate rule is only for infants, toddler...basically kids under 3, and for articles that facilitate eating or sleeping. I don't know if your client is making the ink request, or if you just feel obligated to use this ink yourself.

Here's the link to the SGIA website for a complete definition of the ruling:

Since non-phthalate ink is generally not commonly used, and takes special handling and care, you may want to only use it when absolutely necessary.

By the way, we use Wilflex Epic and it's great.
