Environment

A commitment to environmental responsibility.

At Hornet Press we take our environmental responsibilities very seriously. We have strict environmental standards in place. These include:

  • The use of vegetable based inks that do not contain potentially harmful chemicals.
  • A large range of recycled, environmentally friendly, chlorine and acid-free papers, from sustainable forestry practices are available.
  • All water and chemicals used on presses are separated and disposed of safely according to EPA standards.
  • We use computer to plate (CTP) technology to minimise the necessity for film and chemicals.
  • All paper, aluminium and other waste products are separated for recycling.
  • We also carefully consider requirements for each and every job and use appropriate energy efficient machines to suit.
  • We manage our factory efficiently with minimal waste, and always recycle materials wherever possible.
  • We utilise and generate our own solar electricity to power our facilities.
