" The Printing Central , the oldest printing Mulhouse, born in 1872, is now the most advanced for its impact on the environment, since it has just obtained the abel Imprim'Vert . This is the result of a corporate culture "naturally" environmentally friendly, and efforts for two years to take the company beyond even label criteria.
" Liberto Hernandez, manager of printing, is satisfied with the achievement of this label, the culmination of a process begun several years to reduce the impact of printing on the environment: "We had already choices made good sense for a long time, bringing our waste paper and cardboard for recycling, using washable cloths - not disposable - or reducing the use of toxic products. "
"Similarly, printing the possible uses of pulp from managed forests, something which is (curiously) not required by the label. That left only part of the way to go satisfy the constraints of Imprim'Vert. The approach still need more than a year of material preparation and adaptation of the team (6 persons) involved in the process. "
ZERO DISCHARGE INTO THE ENVIRONMENT:
" With the label printing is required to demonstrate traceability of waste in specialized areas and to reject any liquid effluent in the sewerage group. In addition, it can not use any toxic (to humans or the environment) is required to store liquids in its holding tanks and must keep its energy consumption.
Liberto Hernandez game: "We went further than the label having been abandoned for six months any chemistry in prepress, passing thermal processes, which required a significant investment. " Finally, the packaging materials supplied are of paper or cardboard, not in plastic film or tape. "Now the entire chain of printing, from prepress to finished product, is totally respectful of the environment at the Imprimerie Centrale.
