SUSTAINABILITY WATCH

Sustainable Print In Global Markets

RESTON, Va.—A 300+ page study published in 2009 by PRIMIR entitled, "Sustainable Print in a Dynamic Global Market: What Going Green Means," is now available for general release. The study, which was initially released exclusively to –PRIMIR and NPES members, delves into the impact of print on the environment. It investigates who is driving sustainability in the industry; reports on accreditation and other environmental management programs and systems; reviews regulatory and compliance issues; contrasts how print compares with other industries; and discusses carbon footprinting and offsetting. The study also provides a number of best-practice case studies relevant to all firms in the print supply chain.
