A step towards carbon neutral printing: Imagink goes green!

We make print that will make your competitors green with envy, not just because it looks amazing but because we're trying to make it better for the planet too!
Whilst we are all rightly becoming more conscious and concerned about the environment, we don't have to stop using print as an effective marketing channel, we just have to be smarter about how we do it!

Planting trees to catch carbon

Our promise is to offer you the best printing quality at a competitive price, but it doesn’t mean we need to sacrifice the planet in order to achieve this. While we are a relatively small business we are trying to do our part to offset our carbon footprint by partnering with the Woodland Trust. Between October and December 2019 alone we planted 49.55 m2 of new woodland, removing 1,982 kg of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. That's an area around the size of 13 king sized beds in two months! Planting a single tree has benefits for people, wildlife and the environment. Those benefits vastly increase when planting a whole woodland. They can help increase biodiversity, provide shelter, prevent soil erosion, reduce flooding and much more. For schools, communities and neighbourhoods, trees make our surroundings happier, healthier places to be!

Just the beginning

Since they began in 1972 the Woodland Trust have planted over 43 million trees in the UK, find out more about what they do or get your business involved here. We're proud to join a whole host of companies doing their bit to “go green,” factoring environmental sustainability into their everyday business decisions. While we know there is a lot more we can do to reduce our carbon footprint we hope this is a step in the right direction!
