At Advanced Web, it’s not just about maintaining the environment. It’s
also about economic, financial and social responsibility. They all go hand-in-hand,
playing an integral role in how we run our business, make decisions, and live our
lives.
Sustainability isn’t just a passing fad. It’s a real movement for change,
both in how we do and look at things. We’re committed to helping create a
sustainable world through such initiatives as corn-based recyclable materials, recycling
our liner waste, reusing boxes and cores, and looking into alternative energy ideas.
Advanced Web’s passion for creating an environmentally-conscious business
has earned us “Great Printer” status by the Printing Industry of Minnesota,
for meeting and exceeding their environmental audit points. But we’re not
stopping there. Our commitment to reduce our impact on the environment continues
to grow daily.
We achieve sustainability through:
PLA (polylactic acid) corn-based films
Post-consumer recyclable films
Digital plate-making, eliminating the need for films/negatives
Recycling poly films used in manufacturing process or from raw materials
Recycling metal
Reusing boxes and plastic cores
Recycling liners/printing waste through Channeled Resources Group
Water-based inks, avoiding toxic chemicals
Alternate work schedules to reduce energy use during peak periods
Lean manufacturing, creating efficiencies and reducing waste in the manufacturing
process.
