Earthtone creates innovative and robust ecommerce solution to meet verified market
needs. Founded in 2005, Earthtone's global printing platform is the product of comprehensive
research, rigorous development and an uncompromising commitment to delivering world
class results.
Businesses and individuals are increasingly shifting to e-procurement, leveraging
the choice, convenience and efficiency of online shopping to create efficiencies
and improve their purchasing decisions. At the same time, changing working habits,
facilitated by the mobility explosion, and an increasing awareness of environmental
issues are driving demand for convenient, local and ethical service providers.
Benefitting from technical expertise and significant economies of scale, web-focused
net-to-mail printers and larger corporate chains of
print shops enjoy a dominant position in the online printing space. For
the 90% of smaller, locally focused print businesses, the prohibitive cost of high
visibility, user-friendly e-commerce solutions severely hinders their ability to
compete for market share.
Earthtone's global printing platform bridges the gap between consumers' demand for
a user-friendly online printing solution that offers choice and convenience; and
the desire of tens of thousands of small print businesses for a high visibility
e-commerce solution they need to capitalise on the online printing opportunity.
Now in beta, the platform enables print businesses of any size and any brand to
deploy a world class e-commerce capability without the need for upfront investment.
By acting as a gateway to all
print providers
on the platform, Earthtone lets
buyers
choose more services from more providers, improving purchasing decisions and driving
business to small, local printers from across the web.
Earthtone launches to consumers later this year. To request an invitation to beta
test, or for more information, please
