In an industry not known for environmentally friendly practices, our goal is to have the least environmental impact as possible. Sometimes, as with our processless plates, it costs a bit more but in the long we feel it is worth it.
Here are some of the things we do to limit our environmental footprint:
-
CTP- No film means no film processors, which translates to less water consumption, less chemical consumption, no heavy metal waste.
-
Waterless - No dampening system results in an overall smaller chemical signature.
-
Processless Plates - No plate processors needed, film and plate processors can use over 5000 gallons of water each per year not to mention the chemicals used that must be disposed of.
-
Recycling - 100% of our paper and cardboard waste is recycled.
-
Recycled Paper- Use of recycled paper is encouraged by discounting these stocks during quoting.
