Sustainable Printing Solutions

At Snap Print Solutions, we are committed to providing environmentally friendly printing services that harness social, environmental, and resource-responsible practices for our business and consumers.

Environmental sustainability is a significant point of focus in the printing industry. Snap Print Solutions is committed to the long-term sustainability of its business activities, focussing on maintaining its standing as one of Australia’s most environmentally friendly printing companies.

Our approach is to consider economic, social and environmental impacts in our decision-making.

To show our dedication towards a sustainable future, Snap Print Solutions has partnered with Sustainable Green Print. We are proud to announce that every single Snap Print Solutions Centre around Australia has a Sustainable Green Print Certification!

Sustainable Green Print (SGP) is a nationally recognised environmental certification program designed specifically for print businesses.

The certification, run by the Visual Media Association, is a level-by-level program that aligns with international standards.

The certification is based on the ISO14001 framework and focuses on compliance with environmental policies and risks to ensure that we manage expectations and responsibilities for our business and customers.

Level 1 Certification in Sustainable Green Print focuses on record-keeping, environmental compliance, cleaner production practices and waste management, as well as an Environmental Management System.

We recognise that a comprehensive solution to sustainable printing industry practices begins with print buyers but does not end with Snap as a supplier of print products and services. It extends to our suppliers of equipment and raw materials, their suppliers and to the post-consumer disposal of any publication, product or service.

Our paper suppliers are committed to sustainability and ensure that their products are sourced with consideration of environmental factors. This includes measures to improve environmental impacts, such as the use of certified forest fibres, alternative renewable energy sources, and reducing chemical, energy, water usage and effluent.

Sustainable printing solutions go beyond just our suppliers of paper, to also using eco-friendly printer suppliers. Some of the actions our printer suppliers are taking to reduce the environmental impact of production and manufacturing activities include cutting CO2 emissions, making effective use of water and other resources across the entire product lifecycle, and encouraging sustainable use and disposal of products by customers. Our suppliers are constantly developing products and services that offer outstanding energy-saving and resource-saving results that will contribute to reducing the environmental impact on society at large.

Where possible, we endorse, promote, and work with supplier partners that are serious about sustainable printing solutions.
