UPrinting.com recognizes the importance of everyone doing their part to help the environment.
We are committed and have taken steps forward
to truly offer an environmentally friendly green printing service
And not just a hot new buzz word.
For today's topic, we have assembled five green printing tips
to help you create end products that are environmentally sustainable
without sacrificing quality or price.
Opt for non-toxic inks.
Here at UPrinting,
we do most of our printing with low V-O-C or volatile organic compounds, soy and vegetable-based inks.
These inks are biodegradable, better for our employee's health
and produce lesser carbons in their manufacturing process
than their more traditional, petroleum-based counterparts.
Choose non-toxic coating.
We also offer water-based and non-toxic Aqueous or AQ coatings,
meaning you can still have a partial or full gloss finish
without worrying about potentially harmful toxic chemicals.
This service is available at no extra charge to you.
Proof often, reduce waste.
One of the reasons UPrinting offers free proofing before you pay
is because we want to ensure a thorough proof.
Why? Well, good proofing is one of the best green printing tips out there,
because less printing mistakes means less printing waste.
Look for a printer with a green policy.
It's not enough for a printer to offer non-toxic inks and some recycled stock,
they should be practicing what they preach every day at their own shops.
UPrinting is committed to recycling our scraps, inks and plates.
That means less waste in landfills and a smaller environmental footprint.
Combine mailing and printing.
Instead of printing your direct mail products in one location,
shipping them to your headquarters,
sending them off to a mailing house
and then finally shipping them off to recipients...
Why not combine your printing and mailing under one roof?
It can actually cut down your costs.
UPrinting offers full direct mail services, along with mailing list rentals.
You can print, address and post your next postcard campaign from one, convenient location.
