Why A Local Printer Embraces Eco Friendly Printing
At A Local Printer we believe that there is duty and opportunity for everyone to stake a claim in environmental responsibility. Our route towards minimising our impact on the environment began in 2006 when, as a small commercial printer in Sussex, we took the decision to launch an eco-friendly printing website with specific goals:
To invest in, improve and enhance our printing facilities and become wholly environmentally responsible for our action.
To specifically produce and promote affordable eco-friendly printed products
To guide and influence our customers in making eco-friendly choices for their printing.
To make a difference to the planet in how we operate by embracing social and eco initiatives, such as Love Paper, Printers Against Plastic and Good Business Charter.
