Frank Van Meenen, global marketing manager at Punch Graphix, said, “Punch Graphix is more than committed to a greener future and ecology plays a key role in the design of the end-to-end printing process: from toner production and packaging, through to printing and paper recycling. Also, corporate social responsibility has always been a key focus point for our management. Therefore we are honoured to support the Verdigris Project and pay our contribution to stimulate all printing companies worldwide to strive for a greener future, and to further improve the green image of our industry.”

Xeikon is supplied in New Zealand By Absolute Electronics. Laurel Brunner, managing director of Digital Dots, welcomed Xeikon’s participation in the Verdigris project. She said, “We are particularly impressed with the way it considers the environmental aspect of each project before embarkation and look forward to working together towards our common goals.”

Verdigris, a not-for-profit research initiative designed to help printers and their customers understand more about the environmental impact of print media, says its goal is to raise awareness of print’s positive environmental impact, through content shared with an international network of trade publishers.
