Sustainability
 

ColorDynamics is a FSC, SFI, and PEFC certified company dedicated to conducting business in a socially responsible manner. We respect and preserve the environment through systematically decreasing our consumption of resources while producing the highest quality product for our customer. Our material and outside services are purchased with an eye toward environmental sustainability.

ColorDynamics first major initiative is the reduction of waste and ongoing waste management. Our current recycling program of both office and manufacturing materials is extensive and continues to grow. Below is our year to date and ongoing paper recycling results.

In the pressroom, the addition of automatic ink dispensers reduces the use of excess ink. Our use of low volatile organic compounds (VOC) blanket washers minimizes solvent usage. The installed filtration systems improve the quality of  waste water. Adding closed loop color systems reduces paper waste and produces faster press approvals. ColorDynamics three UV presses utilize UV inks and UV coatings that produce no VOC’s. The changes have lowered our VOC’s by 25.69% in the last three years helping to make for a cleaner earth for all to enjoy.

This is just the beginning of an ongoing cycle to find ways to lower our carbon footprint for better partnership with planet Earth. Please check back in the future for our continuing story.
