Instead of sending hard copy proofs we use digital proofing sent via e-mail. This saves proof material and travel resources.

Omega consciously sources materials from local producers, offering a sustainable printing option in which everything used to create a particular project is produced within 300 miles of your location.

GREEN Ideas for Your Business Print

1. One of  single largest green initiative your business should focus on is to reduce obsolescence... And it's very easy with POD 'Print on Demand" printing.
   Obsolescence is the single largest waste factor with printed products. POD allows customers to order exactly what they need, when they need it and to ship it directly to where they need it. POD also eliminates storage costs including climate control, inventory investment, re-handling pick and pack including vehicles and reshipping. POD = GREEN

2. Eco-friendly printing package that involves professional design review aimed at eliminating inefficient formatting. Use a wider variety of sizing options for customers who want to save paper.

3. Consider the waste reduced by keeping your database up to date. According to Experion, 20% of the addresses in the list of an average business is out of date wasting printing, postage, and utilized resources.

4. How about moving to personalized booklets and fulfillment kits? If you normally send out a 64-page, undifferentiated booklet and switch to a 16-page, personalized brochure, you've just reduced your carbon footprint by 75%.

5. How about targeting your lists so that instead of sending out to everyone, you send only to the appropriate segment of your list at anygiven time?

Eco-friendly corporate gifts and environmentally safe promotional items may be made from post-industrial plastic, corn plastic, recycled, organic, biodegradable, and other earth-friendly materials.

Here are just some of many examples of GREEN products now available:

Recycled plastic soda bottles: Recycled key rings and lanyards are made from

Post-industrial and post-consumer materials: Recycled pens, pencils, and mugs

Corn-based plastic and other petroleum alternatives: Pens and coffee mugs

New Earth Friendly
Regenerate^TM Bottle
 

Made Entirely
From Recycled Plastic
 

A "breakthrough" in the custom labeled bottled water category is a new line of environmentally friendly Regenerate™ 100% RPET (recycled PET) water bottles. These bottles are made entirely from recycled beverage containers and have a 65% smaller carbon footprint than traditional PET plastic bottles.

Regenerate™ bottles represent a huge step forward in the global effort to protect the environment. Approved by the FDA for direct food contact RPET is completely safe and can be recycled like traditional plastic bottles.

Currently, only about 33% of all plastic beverage containers in the U.S. are recycled. Most of these containers are made from PET, which is the clear plastic polymer used in package and container manufacturing.

There is no change in price for this bottle as compared to the old bottle.

Renewable Energy
The forest products industry is the largest producer of renewable biomass energy in the country, generating 77 percent of the nation’s industrial  biomass energy.  Additionally, the renewable energy generated by the forest products industry exceeds all of the nation’s solar, wind and geothermal energy generation combined.  We do this while still adhering to disciplined market-based standards of accountability that ensure that our wood fiber is grown in a sustainable manner.

Recycling
Recycling is one of our country’s greatest environmental success stories. As of 2009, we recovered for recycling more than 60 percent of the paper consumed in the U.S. - an average of 325 pounds for each man, woman, and child in America Paper recycling reuses a renewable resource that sequesters carbon and helps reduce greenhouse gas emissions. AF&PA's goal is to ensure a continuing, expanding domestic recovered fiber supply to help meet global demand.
