Welcome

Hi, I guess if you're looking at this you probably already know who we are.
If not... We are a print company based in the town of Ware in Hertfordshire, England. Please visit our web site to find out more about what we do http://www.hdprint.co.uk/.

The reason for us doing this blog is to let our staff and customers see our progress towards reducing the impact our company has on the environment. Also the blog will enable people to leave comments and ideas which may help us in this project.

Since starting this blog we have achieved ISO14001.

Thanks for your interest, feel free to leave your comments.

Saxon Recycling

During January we began further segregation of our waste and we now use the services of Saxon Recycling to help us with this.

Changes made since contact with Saxon....

  1. All the cleaning rags that get used throughout the company are now placed into seperate bins and not put in with the general waste. Saxon take these away for cleaning.
  2. Saxon are also buying our used aluminium plates that we use for offset printing for reprocessing.
  3. All effluent from printing processes is now stored in containers and collected by Saxon for disposal.
  4. Used plastic containers that had 'harzardous' products in them are now being stored and then collected by Saxon for cleaning and recycling
Saxon did their first 'pick-up' from us on January 23rd.
