Our Commitment to Sustainability in Every Aspect of Business
GreenPrinter's approach to sustainable printing goes beyond just using recycled materials. They meticulously examine every aspect of their business operations, from the machinery they use to even the smallest details like recycled paper seat covers. Their CEO, Mario Assadi, ensures that vendors meet strict criteria regarding the sourcing and production of materials, emphasizing transparency and eco-friendliness. This commitment is evident in every step of their process.
Earth and People Friendly Materials
GreenPrinter prioritizes using environmentally friendly materials in their products. They source paper from New Leaf, known for credible and responsible sourcing practices. Their paper is 100% post-consumer recycled fiber, biodegradable, chlorine-free, and Ancient Forest Friendly. Additionally, their ink is top-of-the-line and environmentally friendly, using soy and vegetable-based ink with zero VOCs. They also have a recycling program for unused inks, promoting a circular economy.
Efficient and Sustainable Processes
GreenPrinter's processes focus on reducing waste, reusing materials, recycling, and offsetting their environmental impact. For offset printing, they use non-toxic processing fluids and recyclable aluminum plates. By implementing cutting-edge technology, they have reduced paper waste by 75% and utilize a chem-free processor. Moreover, their delivery operations are eco-friendly, utilizing recycled packaging and carbon credits to offset energy usage.
A Thoughtfully Redesigned Workplace for Sustainability
GreenPrinter's commitment to sustainability extends to their workplace. They have strategically redesigned their facility to minimize energy consumption. By heating only 10% of their facility and leveraging natural ventilation in their Richmond, CA location, they reduce the need for energy-intensive air conditioning. Remodeling initiatives such as uncovering windows and raising ceilings to allow more natural light further contribute to energy efficiency. Additionally, they have achieved carbon neutrality by offsetting their energy usage with renewable energy credits.
