Oh yeah! I got an email…PRINT. It is a disease in businesses across America. We receive an email so we click our print button. Or maybe we are surfing the web and we come across a website with useful information, PRINT! Clicking our print button is an epidemic. We don’t need to print every time we receive something. That is why we did it electronically in the first place. At Cary Printing we strive to use recycled paper and recycle the paper we use. We send things via email and try to reduce the consumption of normal daily office paper. On our presses, we strive to reduce waste as well. We do our best to reduce scrap materials.
So next time you feel like printing just because you can, just stop and think.

As sad as it might be, there are printers out there who might call themselves “green” but might not have all of the certificationsand authenticity that a true “green” printer would have. Now all printers that consider themselves “green” are probably stepping in the right direction, however a step in the right direction isn’t the same as being totally “green.”
What They Share
Both semi-green and real-green printers usually use recycled paper which is excellent. That way they are not causing more trees to be cut down. Both of these printers will often use vegetable-oil based inks or soy inks. These inks are made naturally and not synthetically which means that their waste is obviously better for the environment.
What Separates Them
Despite the fact the pseudo-green and the genuine-green printers use both recycled papers and natural inks, here is the way you can know that your printer is truly, 100% “green.”
- First, a true green printer will have certifications from national and international environmental agencies such as the PEFC, FSC, and the SFI. Cary Printing has all three of those certifications in addition to many awards and local “green” certifications. Even better, Cary Printing was the very first US printer awarded with the International Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification or the PEFC.
- True green printers will have ethical environmental programs including a strong emphasis on recycling in the workplace. In addition, they use the least amount of paper possible in order to make sure they are being best stewards of their resources and doing everything in their power to leave no carbon footprint.
- The true “green” printer will make sure that they keep their certifications up-to-date. This is to ensure that they stay on top of things and are always on the forefront of being “green.”

Ok, so we need to clear this up right away. If you are printing “green” you are not printing on a paper bag. Our paper is just as pure white as non-recycled paper. Recycling technology has come so far, you don’t even need to worry about lower quality paper because no one can tell a difference. Are you still having doubts? Well, if you are, feel free to order samples from our website. We would be more than happy to show you the high, excellent quality that “green” printing offers.

Green printing is a wave of the future. Printing green is merely a way to make sure that we are doing everything in our power to protect our planet. Here are three ways “green” printers are set apart from a normal printer.
1.) Natural inks are used including soy based inks and vegetable-oil based inks.
2.) Products are printed on recycled paper. There are tons of different forms of recycled papers, check them out on our website: www.caryprinting.com. The least possible amount of paper is used, ultimately making less paper used.
3.) Finally and most importantly, these printers have received certifications from organizations such as PEFC, SFI and the FSC. Make sure that the certifications are genuine!
