Sustainable print products
Below is an overview of our most commonly used products and materials that are all carefully selected for their environmental credentials:
1. Paper based printing
This relates to paper-based products such as reports, brochures, posters, flyers and invitations and business stationery
For these products, we use premium ecological papers with the following features:
- FSC recycled and EU ecolabel certified
- Fully recyclable – even after use
2. Printed boards
We now offer an extensive range of boards with a 100% environmentally friendly profile for all requirements.
These boards are made from recycled, paper-based materials and can be supplied in a variety of sizes, depending on your needs. Some of our eco-friendly products include:
- Hanging boards
- Freestanding signs
- Props
- Backdrops
- Custom boxes.
3. Wall, floor and window graphics
For a long time, wall graphics have been one of hardest wearing print products on the environment. To remedy this, Hacketts has invested in sustainable vinyl solutions which allows our customers to have the same high-quality results.
We now offer a range wall, floor, and window vinyls with the following sustainable features:
- PVC-free vinyls and window films
- Water based eco-friendly inks
- No lamination on selected wall & floor vinyl
- No laminate on all window films
- Water-based laminates used where required
PVC free vinyls are made from plastics and polymers that are recyclable and have a much smaller carbon footprint than the traditional PVC based vinyls. While many do not require a laminate, the water-based laminate used on the vinyl is also PVC free and sustainable.
