At Earthtone we encourage you not to print unnecessarily. If you do need to print something, please consider using Earthtone’s eco-search function to find printing locations offering environmentally preferable options.

When searching for a printing location:

Look for a location that’s within walking distance
Look for FSC, EMAS and ISO14001 certifications

When configuring your print job:

Choose recycled paper
Choose duplex (double-sided) printing
Use the soft proof function to avoid reprinting

When you get to the location:

Ask whether it has an environmental policy
Ask whether it measures its carbon footprint
Ask what steps it’s taking to reduce its environmental impact

The best way of persuading printing locations to adopt greener principles is to take your business to those who follow best practice. Please help other users to make the right choice by reviewing the printing locations you use.
