Sustainability
We are the first and only company in the world to integrate WaterColors® paint; an environmentally responsible production process, into regular production.
WaterColors® is a key material used in producing the quality of colour and accuracy that we are known for.
We use responsibly sourced paper and ink, and recycle all our paper, plastic, steel and aluminium.
Water Based Foundation
For more than 90% of our products, we use a unique, water-based paint foundation which is 95% VOC-free. This means that we do not need vast amounts of energy to burn off the VOC’s prior to emission into the atmosphere and as a result our carbon footprint is smaller. Despite having virtually no VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds), our paint base shares all the same essential ingredients as our customers’ paints, it is eco-friendly and odour-free without compromising colour quality.
Recycling for the Environment
We approach recycling with the same commitment to excellence that we apply to our manufacturing processes: we don’t tolerate any half-measures or token gestures. We recycle all our paper waste.
All our steel drums and aluminium plates are recycled. All our plastic wrapping is recycled.
Future programs include generating power from solar panels to subsidize our energy usage and harvesting rain water to make our paint with.
Thanks to our environmentally responsible approach our customers can honestly and confidently claim that their marketing material is produced in an ethical, sustainable way by an environmentally conscious supplier
Responsibly sourced paper and ink
We are committed to working with suppliers that conform to sustainable practices. We print with vegetable oil based ink & aqueous clear coat.
We are certified by the Forestry Stewardship Council® meaning our customers can be confident that we can supply them with products printed on responsibly sourced paper. FSC® certified products are available upon request.
