In some countries, up to 80% of all timber is illegally harvested, often in violation of human rights and resulting in the destruction of protected forests. The ecological role of forests cannot be underestimated. They provide us with clean water, food, medicine, natural resources and prevent global warming.
The FSC (Forest Stewardship Council), an internationally recognized non-profit organization, was established in 1993 as a response to concerns over global deforestation. They provide a chain-of-custody between production and consumption of forest products. This means that when a job gets the FSC approval, the paper can be tracked to a managed forest, assuring that trees in environmentally sensitive areas have not been cut down.
Print Tech is FSC Certified because we pursue a pro-active “green” strategy. We believe that part of our mission is to reduce our footprint on the environment by using FSC papers, other recycled papers and vegetable-based inks. And whether you print one page from your computer or 10,000 full-color brochures with us, we hope you consider the environment before printing.
