48HourPrint.com Makes Eco-Friendly Paper Switch
BOSTON-(Business Wire)-September 23, 2009 - 48HourPrint.com is working to become a model of sustainability and quality, and recently switched its standard paper offering to a paper made with recycled content as one of a number of steps the company is taking toward that goal.
48HourPrint.com, a leading online printing services company offering a broad range of printed products as well as mailing services, partnered with NewPage, a leading U.S. paper company with a history of promoting environmentally responsible practices and using sustainable resources, to make the switch on September 1, 2009. In doing so, 48HourPrint.com not only implemented a solid “green” practice, but is also helping the economy right here at home as the paper is made in the U.S.
The additional cost to the company for the recycled stock will not be passed onto customers of 48HourPrint.com, and will instead be absorbed by the company as part of its investment in environmentally responsible business practices and quality services.
“Offering a recycled sheet as our standard paper choice sends a strong message about 48HourPrint.com’s commitment to quality and the environment,” said Raymond E. Pinard, President and Chief Executive Officer of 48HourPrint.com. “We know that there are a lot of people and businesses that share our belief that doing better for the environment is an imperative, not an option. When we found a recycled paper that would also result in a superior quality product for our customers, we made it our standard sheet,” added Pinard.
Available in a variety of text and cover weights, the paper is a better choice for the environment and customers. Recycled content ranges from 10% Post-Consumer Waste (PCW) content on cover weights to 30% PCW on text weights.
“We want to make sure that our business and our products are as environmentally-friendly as possible,” said Glenn Kacsh, VP, Manufacturing. “The upgrade to a recycled and higher quality paper stock is part of an ongoing quality initiative in progress at 48HourPrint.com that has placed us at the forefront of the online printing industry. We know that people have a lot of choices when it comes to online printers, and we’re working hard to provide our customers with a quality experience through-and-through while at the same time protecting the environment.”
