Eco Audits Becoming More Popular

With initiatives like the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC), environmentally friendly printing has become a large part of our business.

More and more of our customers are showing their support for the environment by utilizing "GREEN" print logos such as that of the FSC or parallel schemes such as Rainforest Alliance and SFI.

These certifications all essentially say the same thing. That is, that certified suppliers or those who utilize certified suppliers support sustainability.

Organizations such as the Environmental Defense Fund have taken it a step further by allowing users to quantify their impact or lack thereof for that matter.

By comparing your recycled sheet against a non-recycled sheet of the same quality and weight, you can illustrate exactly how your decision to print "GREEN" has helped the environment.

Eco Audits are fast, easy to calculate, and compliment other eco-friendly logos very well.
