Recycling Since 1984
Our second highest priority after preventing waste is to recycle the waste we do produce. Each workstation in the production and office areas has its own recycling separation center.We recycle:
- Toner bottles from digital printing
- Paper ream wrappers, cardboard boxes, the plastic straps that bind them, plus the cardboard cores of the bulk paper rolls
- Aluminum cans, newspapers, CD-Rs , office paper and computers equipment
- Virgin paper (glue and ink free)
- Wooden pallets (once they are beyond repair)
- Metal strapping
