With this we contribute to a CO2 reduction of 422,000 kg, equivalent to a CO2 absorption of 19,090 trees. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

The working climate at all office and production locations is also considered to guarantee a comfortable workplace for our employees. For example, various cooling units have been installed in the production location of our site in Heumen. Our so-called Digital Printing Center in Uithoorn is built according to the highest sustainability requirements and awarded with a BREAAM Outstanding certificate. <\/span> <\/span>[\/vc_column_text]

Together with our suppliers and customers, we are constantly looking for sustainable labeling solutions and making the necessary investments to stimulate these innovations. Cooperation with chain partners, but also with colleagues, is crucial to achieve the sustainability objectives of each person involved with the desired impact.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

The Geostick Aqualine labels for PE and PP packaging are the solution for hot and cold washable. The labeling line can be recycled and approved by the KIDV (Knowledge Institute for Sustainable Packaging). This approval makes the labels eligible for a lower rate in the waste management fee, the so-called tariff discount for packaging. Packaging is eligible for this if it is easy to sort out and has a positive market value after recycling.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n
