EnvizionGrafix.com has established a sustainability system to minimize waste and support environmental responsibility.

We are proud to announce that we now offer paper stocks that are chlorine free and FSC or SFI certified.

The SFI forestry certification program is one of the largest in the world, with a standard based on principles and measures that promote responsible environmental behavior and sound forest management, including measures to protect water quality, biodiversity, wildlife habitat, species at risk, and forests of exceptional conservation value.

The Forestry Stewardship Council (FSC), prohibits conversion of natural forests or other habitat around the world, prohibits the use of highly hazardous pesticides, prohibits the cultivation of genetically modified trees (GMOs) and respects the right of indigenous peoples around the world.

Vegetable-based inks significantly reduce the amount of VOCs (volatile organic compounds) released into the air during printing.

While vegetable oils are a renewable resource, the pigment suspended in those oils is an often toxic ingredient for which there are few substitutes. Certain colors of ink, even vegetable-based ink, contain heavy-metal pigments like cadmium, barium, and copper, which are associated with various health hazards. Everything we print derives from the same four colors of ink, which do not contain these heavy-metal pigments.

But we don’t stop there.

In addition to paper and inks, our commitment to the environment is reinforced through all aspects of operation:

* Aqueous coatings are water based
* All paper waste is recycled
* Corrugated shipping cartons are 100% recyclable
* Shipping cartons are packed with 100% recyclable material
* All paper waste resulting from our production process are recycled.
* We recycle our metal printing plates, inks and solvents.
