Eco friendly printers

Eco friendly printers typically use vegetable based inks that are neither toxic or a risk to health. They use alcohol substitutes in the dampening process on press for lower VOC emissions. Eco friendly printers will always use recycled paper wherever possible.

Did you know? Producing recycled paper involves between 28 – 70% less energy consumption than virgin paper and uses less water. This is because most of the energy used in papermaking is the pulping needed to turn wood into paper.

When choosing paper, look for the FSC’s Chain of Custody Certification, which guarantees that the paper came from a sustainably managed forest. You also get to use the FSC Logo on your print work, which shows your customers that you are supporting sustainable forest management. Eco friendly printers will always use paper obtained from sustainable sources.
