Environment / Sustainability
As a printer, we understand the importance of minimising our ecological footprint in preserving and restoring our world's forests, preventing global warming and protecting plant, animal and human life. We respect our invaluable natural resources, and are committed to...
- Helping our clients choose environmentally friendly paper and finishing products
- Minimising energy consumption
- Educating clients on product use and document obsolescence
- Recycling all waste
- Operating our facility efficiently

All suspect waste (inks, solvents, pre-press waste chemicals) is decanted and destroyed by Environmental Waste Ltd. We only use 100% vegetable-based inks which are oil free. All Chemistry and cleaners where possible are also vegetable based.
Where possible, we use PDF proofing to eliminate paper use and recommend that our clients use paper sourced from Forest Stewardship Council-accredited suppliers who practise sustainable forest management in line with strict international standards, and operate under ISO 140001 environmental systems and practices. Where possible, paper manufacture is elemental chlorine free.
