Our printing plant is Svanemerket and we are part of Grønt Punkt Norway. Our routines and work operations always include environmental considerations.
SVANEMERKET
As a Svanemerket company, we meet a number of environmental obligations. That means, among other things. that we only use paper from sustainable forestry, approved inks and that any subcontractors meet our environmental requirements.
Grønt Punkt Norge AS (GPN) operates return schemes for packaging so that this goes to recycling and new products. As an approved member company, we undertake to follow the guidelines for the treatment of residual waste. We know that all used packaging and cuttings from our printing business go to recycling and new production.
As a customer of Ålgård Offset, you can use the Printed in Norway brand to show that your printed matter is short-lived and produced in an environmentally friendly way. Printed in Norway is developed by the Norwegian Industry – Graphic Industry Association and can only be used by their members.
The certification means that we must be able to document the use of the right certified paper internally in our production. PEFC is the forest industry’s own certification system, and helps to promote environmentally, socially and economically sound operations of forestry. There is also a traceability certification that allows printed matter to be followed throughout the process from the forest to the consumer.
Get in touch and we will tailor the brand for your printed matter.
