Starting in 2007, the printing industry was besieged with requests on how to become sustainable and recognize sustainable printing operations. As a response, the industry developed and launched the Sustainable Green Printing Partnership, which is a certification program for printers.

The Sustainable Green Printing Partnership can serve as a model for other industry sectors and will reveal an industry sector moved forward, and most importantly, the benefits reaped by participating companies will be presented. It is the intent to provide a case study that provides tangible benefits, both environmental as well as economic. As a result, it is anticipated that future partnerships will be developed between the industry sector and others to move the sustainability message and industry program forward.

Presenter: Gary Jones, Director, EHS Affairs for the Printing Industry of America
