The green machines’ benefits:

·       Print runs and stock holding can be reduced.

·       There’s no engraving of print cylinders and their associated carbon footprints are reduced.

·       Stock holding and waste is reduced significantly.

All the inks used are water-based and solvent free, and 100% of the paper is sustainable. Also working with Forest Carbon, they are supporting conservation and sustainable forest creation projects that follow and are accredited by Verra standards.
