OUR ENVRONMENTAL RESPONSIBILITY

MTPress recognizes the need to be good stewards of the Planet. We continue to develop programs that focus on quality, efficiency and conservation. As these programs are launched, we continue to monitor their progress, and make adjustments when possible to strive for the best possible outcome.

Paper Sustainability (FSC™ C023083): MTPress takes the issue of sustainable paper very seriously. Since 2008, our printer has been certified in the FSC Chain of Custody program. FSC Chain of Custody certification verifies that FSC certified material is identified or kept segregated from non-certified or non-controlled material through this chain. Mixing of FSC certified and non-certified products must be done under controlled procedures that meet the FSC Chain of Custody requirements.

Paper Recycling Program: Paper trimmings during a production run is automatically pulled by high power vacuums and funneled into a repurposing staging area. The paper is compacted and wrapped for delivery to a recycling company. By doing this process we ensure the maximum amount of paper used for a project is consumed or re-purposed.

Chemical Free Thermal CTP Plate: Our printer uses the Agfa Azura TS plate making system for its presses. Unlike conventional plate making systems, the Azura TS system does not require chemicals for the process. No water is required for the washing section which results in water savings as well. Waste treatment is lowered significantly.
