Carbon Neutral

Paper isn’t the only process dedicated to reducing waste– so are our printers!

Some printers in our facility use solid ink instead of laser printing. This alone brings our total waste down from 223 pounds in 4 years, to just 19 pounds!

*Total waste produced from printing 4,000 sheets per month for 4 years.

Wood

The pine lumber that is used for Signature Announcements products is commonly known as plantation wood. This plantation wood is only used to grow native species of wood to North America.

Farm Area

The lumber company owns a total of six farms which equal a total area of nearly 4,000 acres. 64% of this total area is preserved with native tree species. The National Forestry Service require that any company who cuts down trees must plant 3 trees for every 1 cut. Our supplier has been adhering to this standard for over 13 years.

Treatment Areas

Our supplier uses a water treatment system to use on all raw materials to produce the moldings to make our diploma frames. This minimizes the emission of pollutants in the air as well as preserving the environment.
