Sustainability
From our roots as a small business, we know what it means to do the right thing. For four decades, we have faithfully served our clients and our community. But we also know that being a good steward goes far beyond the communities we serve. And that’s why we are committed to acting with integrity when it comes to protecting and preserving the environment.
At Howard Press, we are sensitive to our carbon footprint and are actively involved in sustainability in our recycling efforts, our expert use of 100% non-toxic and biodegradable soy inks upon request, and our purchase of paper from environmentally responsible sources.
We have been certified as a chain of custody producer through the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) ®, a diverse group of industry and environmental stakeholders responsible for developing and promoting a consistent, reliable set of third-party certification standards that are universally recognized. That means when you partner with us, you can be sure that you are purchasing wood and paper products from forests specifically grown and managed to conserve biodiversity and support local communities.
Additional information about FSC ® Certification can be found using the links below. A copy of our certificate can be found on our certificate page.
