Whether we are printing a project, investing in new equipment, or selecting consumables, we identify opportunities to reduce our impact on the environment by conserving energy and natural resources.

We are FSC® Certified and G7 Certified. FSC Certification promotes responsible forestry management. As an FSC Certified printer, Priority Press can print your job on paper that has followed a chain of custody from the forest floor to our shop floor. All sources that bear the FSC® trademark are from responsibly maintained forests, which have been certified in accordance with the rules of the Forest Stewardship Council®. The FSC® product label allows consumers worldwide to recognize products and companies that support the growth of responsible forest management worldwide.

G7 Certification also supports sustainable manufacturing. This color management methodology that helps us reduce our environmental footprint by efficiently matching press sheets to proofs, lowering set-up paper waste.

Priority Press recycles paper, corrugate, plates, wooden pallets, and unused inks. Whenever possible, we choose environmentally-friendly materials. Our offset inks are soy and vegetable-based, and our house papers are manufactured with 10% post-consumer waste. We have also updated our lighting plant-wide with energy-saving fixtures.

The EcoSmart™ certification program has certified the process inks used by Priority Press are environmentally friendly inks with low VOCs and high renewable resource content. Priority Press also contracts with an outside firm to ensure all waste ink and other chemicals are disposed of in compliance with the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA).
