Green Printing

Green … more than just a colour
‘On Demand’ printing makes environmental sense. No make ready, only print what you need and reduce waste.

iGen4 – Digital Printing Press

Not only is quality and performance paramount when purchasing new equipment but consideration is also given to environmental impacts. Suited to our existing recycling programme at Wickliffe, the new iGen4 has been designed to help reduce our environmental footprint.

iGen4 credentials

• Up to 97% of the iGen4’s components are recyclable or can be remanufactured
• It does not use any hazardous materials or generate any hazardous wastes
• More than 80%, by weight, of the waste generated by the machine, including consumables such as dry ink, packaging and parts, can be returned, reused or recycled
• The iGen4 uses dry inks that are non-toxic and have a high efficiency transfer rate meaning less waste is generated. Dry ink is also easier to de-ink in commercial paper re-pulping processes compared with liquid toners.

Environmentally friendly paper

The iGen4 has the capability to print on any recycled stock. Environmentally friendly paper stocks are available from our extensive range and include recycled papers with various percentages of pre- or post-consumer waste. Other papers available are produced using certified forest management systems while an increasing number of paper companies are complying with ISO 14001, an internationally accepted standard of effective environmental management.
