Sustainability
In 2019 our Company celebrated 40 years of existence and to mark this date we decided to make the biggest investment in our history! The acquisition of Fujifilm JetPress 750s is in line with our primary goal of ensuring the best print quality on the market.
It is part of our goals to reduce the environmental footprint, improving the production process and making it progressively more environmentally friendly.
In 2018 we developed a new packaging solution to ship our products. This solution, which is in the process of patenting, has resulted in a reduction in the use of plastic by about 90%.
In 2020 we intend to continue to reduce the environmental footprint. By printing an album on photographic paper, we generate about 1 liter of chemicals with heavy metals, as is the case of silver.
With JetPress 750S inkjet printing, we not only have superior quality printing technology but we are also a lot more friendly to the environment. The inkjet printing technology does not use the chemical process of photographic development.
The paper used during the production of the products comes from ecologically managed forests and has the FSC® warranty seal.
