Making an informed environmental decision.  If you really have concerns about the environment, is choosing a waterless printer the best you can do? "My printer uses recycled paper and vegetable inks, isn't that enough?" Your current printer would try to convince that it is. We say no! Print waterless and there is no need for alcohol or its nasty substitutes, it saves on paper waste and does not waste water needlessly. (Some people say that waterless printing needs large refrigerated cooling units, not true! Come and have a look). Ask your printer if they are accredited to the highest environmental standard available. 

At Spectrum we never say we are "green" or "environmentally friendly". Manufactruring print damages the environment, getting up in the morning damages the environment. If you need to buy print and you are environmentally concerned, what could be better than choosing a waterless printer that only uses waterless machines? If claims are made that your job will be printed waterless, ask for a press check so you can see for yourself!

Spectrum was the first printing company in Australia to achieve the highest level of environmental accreditation available. ISO 14001 was too easy and did not require change (see latest news for the difference between our standard and 14001). Spectrum has been awarded the "Good Environmental Choice Australia" eco label, www.geca.org.au . This means that "at every step in the printing process we have to use world's best practice for the environment."

Spectrum was also the first printer in Australia to offset the emissions from the power used in the factory and the company cars. So, choose Spectrum and we will plant a tree for you! To find out how see latest news.
