Sustainability at Norwood

We are committed to employing sustainable practices and solutions in all of our day-to-day operations.

We are at the forefront of innovating and establishing sustainable initiatives with a goal of creating and pioneering sustainable industry standards.

Norwood applies best practice in each step of the printing processfrom digital proofing to most effective substrate use, by ensuring that laydowns are done in a way that utilises the maximum amount of the printed substrate. This is accomplished while still maintaining a high quality and price competitive product.

Any polypropylene waste that is generated is 100% recycled in partnership with GCP. This approach to sustainability is made possible through comprehensive staff training and the shared culture of environmental impact awareness that has been created at Norwood.
