Committed to more sustainable print practices
At PrintedDirect, we believe in harnessing the power of technology to drive positive change for
our planet.
We're constantly seeking innovative ways to minimise our environmental
impact, from utilising cutting-edge printing techniques that conserve resources to implementing
waste reduction strategies and investing in eco-friendly materials.
With the environment at the forefront of our minds, we're committed to offsetting our carbon footprint by investing in renewable energy, carbon sequestration, and other sustainable initiatives. When you choose PrintedDirect, you're choosing a company that prioritises environmental responsibility and contributes to a greener future.
At PrintedDirect, we're actively pursuing ways to reduce waste and promote sustainability in our printing processes. We reuse ink cartridges whenever possible, and invest in cutting-edge technology that minimises paper usage, making every effort to minimise our environmental impact.
The Printed Group is committed to minimising waste and promoting sustainability, and we've achieved this by being a zero to landfill site. A staggering 95% of our waste is recycled and transformed into new products, while the remaining 5% is converted into Refuse Derived Fuel, making sure that every bit of waste we produce is put to good use.
Through constant innovation, we're removing plastic from our packaging and increasing our eco-friendly offerings. These changes are crucial for the environment and future generations. We're committed to continuously improving our sustainability practices and providing more sustainable options for our customers.
