What does FSC® Certified mean?
The Forest Stewardship Council® (FSC) is an international, non-governmental organisation dedicated to promoting responsible management of the world's forests. Since its foundation in 1994, FSC has grown to become the world's
most respected and widespread forest certification system.
Paper and other print substrates made from trees are both renewable and recyclable, but only when responsibly sourced and sensitively processed. Through responsible management of forests, and verifying the use of recycled materials,
the FSC system can help secure a long-term source of paper.
A certified FSC printer has passed an inspection and has processes to ensure the proper chain of custody for paper products used.
Printcraft's FSC certification allows us to offer our clients the ability to
demonstrate their commitment to responsible sourcing, through the use of
FSC-certified papers and the application of the FSC labels.
A Sustainable Green Future
Printcraft are consciously improving our print practices through FSC® printing, eco-friendly print methods and recycling, as well as the use of efficient machinery and Solar Power.
We hold ISO certification for:

By using vegetable and soy-based inks, we eliminate the need for harmful solvents and chemicals. Our printing presses utilise smart technology to reduce ink use and wastage. They also use special ink cannisters which can be sent back to the supplier for re-use.
We follow sustainable green print practices, by recycling all metal printing plates, waste and off-cuts during the production process.
