The “chasing arrows” symbol can be used without qualification only if the product or package is made entirely from recycled material and is commonly recyclable.

Paper or products made with paper can contain post-consumer or pre-consumer recycled fiber or both. POST-CONSUMER WASTE (PCW) fiber is generated from consumer end products that have been separated or divided from the solid waste stream.

Soy Ink contains non-toxic soybean oil, the same oil which is used in cooking oils, dressings and thousands of other foos and beverages.
