"Print needn't cost the earth"

We have achieved Forest Stewardship Council® (FSC®) and Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification schemes (PEFC) Chain of custody certification for responsibly sourced paper.

This will allow you to track your print job from the forest, through the pulp producer, paper mill, paper merchant, Acorn, to you the customer. You can also have the option of an environmentally friendly laminate on your covers should you want the glossy look without harming the planet. Please specify if this is a requirement when you request your quotation.

We hold the following accreditations: OHSAS 18001 for our Health and Safety Management System and ISO 14001 for our Environmental Management System.

We constantly strive to reduce our chemical usage and have eliminated the use of alcohol completely in our web printing. Any chemical waste generated in the process is collected and dealt with by accredited waste contractors.

We are constantly looking at reducing our waste paper and all waste that we produce both in the manufacturing plant and in the office is segregated and sent for recycling.

With Acorn Web, you can be assured that we are working towards a better environment. Visit the official website for the Forest Stewardship Council for further information on their standard.

Paper has been the preferred communications medium for 2,000 years. Even in today's digital world, it continues to be highly effective and, produced, used and disposed of responsibly, is inherently sustainable.

Paper is one of the most recycled products in the world! In 2018, the European recycling rate for paper was 72%. The paper industry is now seeking to make another leap forward by reaching the elevated rate of 74% by 2020 - this is close to the maximum recycling rate of around 80%
