The Environment
Environmental responsibility, sustainability and renewable resources are big issues which every organisation needs to deal with. There’s no opt-out clause. We’re committed to running a business that takes a best practice approach to being responsible.
Printing has some points of contact with the physical environment, especially in the sourcing of paper and board. The stocks we use are biodegradable, recyclable and made from a renewable resource.
Our company is proud to be FSC® accredited, ensuring that the paper we use comes from responsibly managed forests. With our FSC certification number, C014371, customers can easily verify our compliance with FSC®‘s rigorous standards. Additionally, our stock conforms to ISO 14001 standards, further highlighting our commitment to environmentally appropriate and responsible sourcing practices.
In our press room we make extensive use of vegetable-oil based inks, water-based coatings and our offset presses run IPA (Isopropyl Alcohol) free, eliminating carcinogens from the printing process.
Our latest large format press, Komori G640+C (‘G’ for green) uses 30% less power than its predecessor. Komori won international awards for the efficiencies of this press, particularly for its low impact on the environment.
