Ecological printing
Coldset Printing Partners invests in the latest technology, waterless printing, which contributes to a durable world.
FSC label
The FSC standard ( issued by the Forest Stewardship Council® ) balances social, economic and environmental interests. Forest management in accordance with this standard, and the associated wood and paper production, relieves forests for current and future generations. The conditions to meet the requirements for FSC certification are therefore extremely strict. The goal is to establish a chain of custody, closely monitoring the wood from logging to final product. A specific FSC audit is ensured at each step of the production process and at each company involved. Every year the FSC audit must be renewed, it is a guarantee of responsible forest management.
ISO 14001 Certified
Following a thorough audit, led by the LRQA (Lloyds) inspection body, Coldset Printing Partners achieved the ISO 14001 standard in March 2011. This shows that Coldset Printing Partners is always in compliance with legislation, procedures and rules, including environmental issues.
The ISO 14001 certificate that was issued includes all of our activities as a printing company. In the objectives formulated prior to the audit, Coldset Printing Partners engaged in continually working on rational energy consumption, optimal waste management and management of hazardous products. A clear commitment on every level.
Environmental care
The board subscribes to the following policy principles in its environmental care:
- work in compliance with relevant laws and regulations
- integrate environmental care in all departments through extensive communication and awareness
- work on the preventive approach to environmental impact
- continuously improving the functioning of the environmental management system
Ecological energy supply
Durable printing starts with renewable energy. For several years, we have had a windmill that generates 50% of our required energy. In addition, we have solar panels installed, so CPP also contributes to an ecological energy supply.
