Should we be taking heed of decisions by print companies like Pureprint on greening-up our offering? As the first printing company in the UK to be certified to ISO 14001 in 1993, Pureprint maintains that sustainability is at the heart of its business, and as such it’s now offering clients a way to balance the carbon emissions of their paper-based print. Director Richard Owens – talking of the benefits of Carbon Balanced Paper – said recently: “It is good to see our customers becoming more environmentally conscious. I am sure it is a combination of programmes like Blue Planet and the increasing evidence of climate change through weather events and natural disasters that is persuading more people to care about the environment.” That attitude must be filtering through to non-paper based print – isn’t it?
