Environmentally Friendly Print

 

We have a range of fully recyclable board materials. Here are a few we use on a regular basis. We’re always looking to add to this list too.

 

MDF

While this wood-based product is made from sawdust and, if it is certified, sustainably grown wood, it uses glue to bond its composite pieces. And even though the amount of glue has decreased over the years, meaning it is effectively low formaldehyde and reusable.

 

Foamex

Did you know that while foamex is made of plastic, it’s fully recyclable? It’s also re-usable. It comes in different thicknesses. So have a think when ordering for whether you really need the thickest material, or in fact, you could use a thinner board, saving plastic use even before recycling.

 

PVC-free materials – Uncoated paper

Not only does this give you a beautiful matte surface, it’s also not reflective, like coated gloss or satin papers. If you’re producing presentations or art, think of using an uncoated matte paper stock to show off your words and work effectively on recyclable stock.

 

Carbon Balanced Paper

Carbon Balancing is where the carbon impacts of a product or service have been estimated and an equivalent amount of carbon dioxide is either prevented from being released into, or is absorbed from, the atmosphere.

When you choose Carbon Balanced Paper you can include a unique logo on your print run: an instant, high-visibility seal that demonstrates your commitment to reducing your carbon impact and enhances your brand.
