As an environmentally friendly printing company we are pleased to have been awarded FSC certification (FSC® C007915). The Forest Stewardship Council® (FSC) is a global not-for-profit organisation that sets the standards for responsibly managed forests, both environmentally and socially. When timber leaves an FSC certified forest they ensure companies along the supply chain make correct claims about its origin, and when a product bears the FSC logo, you can be sure it’s been made from responsible sources. In this way, FSC certification helps forests remain thriving environments for generations to come, by helping you make ethical and responsible choices. For more information visit https://uk.fsc.org/
The FSC logo on a wood or wood-based product is your assurance that it contains material from FSC certified forests and other controlled sources. There are three types of FSC label: 100%, FSC Mix or FSC Recycled.
We can add the FSC logo to your printed materials depending on the types of paper you choose for your project. Please let us know if this is a requirement when discussing your print jobs with us.
Scanplus Limited is a partner of the Woodland Carbon Scheme in association with the Woodland Trust. Woodland Carbon is a unique scheme to help companies reduce their carbon footprint by locking up carbon emissions through planting trees. We work with the Woodland Trust to create new woodlands in the UK, harnessing nature’s simple and powerful way of removing carbon dioxide from the environment.
To date we have helped create 112.28m2 of new native woodland in the UK to remove 4,491 kg of Carbon Dioxide.
We can include the Woodland Carbon Capture logo on any of your printed items and clients wishing to measure their own print-related carbon capture for further marketing can do so through this scheme. To find out more visit www.woodlandtrust.org.uk
