Antalis bags sustainability accolade

ANTALIS is celebrating after the firm secured the Sustainability Advocate Award at the Independent Print Industries Association (IPIA)’s recent Expo event and Recognition Excellence Awards.

The IPIA is a not-for-profit trade association focused on helping members to develop their print-related businesses.

Simon Fisher, commercial director for Antalis print, publishing, office and visual communications, said the award endorses the company’s work to achieve a sustainable substrate offering and practices which allow customers to meet their own green goals.

“Sustainability is key to Antalis’ business and is central to our continued developments in broadening our environmental portfolio to offer a choice when choosing substrates,” he added. “Antalis has also developed the Green Star System to aid the selection of sustainable media.

“The system categorises our portfolio with a rating approach to rank products based upon their environmental credentials, which can also be complemented by our innovative carbon offsetting schemes. We were honoured to be part of the awards ceremony and to meet so many talented industry friends and experts all celebrating the print industry.”
