Choosing recyclable packaging printed on recycled stock,

not only makes a statement, but makes a difference.

 

We make an effort to be environmentally friendly. We use soy based inks, have minimal VOCs (volatile organic compounds) in our manufacturing process, offer loads of Earth friendly packaging, and have a disc recycling drop-off program at our facility. However, what can make the biggest difference, is the packaging choices our clients make.

Jewel cases, DigiPaks, and plastic DVD boxes are the industry standards, and are about as Earth friendly as an oil spill. If you are ready to be a bit kinder to the Planet, choose one of our Earth friendly packaging designs, print it on recycled stock, and sleep better at night.

 

 

   
Recycled Stocks

We can manufacture most of our packaging using these stocks


 

CCNB Recycled Stock
1 side coated white / 1 side uncoated grayish

Clay Coat News Back has been used for years in the food industry (i.e. cereal boxes), This stock has a white coated surface for your full color artwork, with the reverse side being a grayish uncoated color that suggests "I'm recycled". (The uncoated side can vary from light to medium gray and sometimes even light brown depending on what was recycled that day.)

We can print on the coated or uncoated side of the stock. Most jobs print on the white coated side with the uncoated side showing through in the spine gutters and insides of pockets.

 

CCKB Recycled Stock
1 side coated white / 1 side uncoated brown

Clay Coat Kraft Back is like CCNB with a brown back. One side is a white coated surface with the reverse side of the stock being a medium uncoated brown that confidentally says "I'm recycled".

We prefer not to print onto the uncoated brown side of this stock... for that look we recommend Chipboard ->

 

Chipboard Recycled Stock
Both sides uncoated brown

Chipboard has been around for many years and screams "I'm recycled!" It is uncoated brown on both sides with lots of tiny bits of ground-up post consumer waste, leaving no doubt that this is a recycled stock.

Because it is a rich brown stock, colors become somewhat muted, so we recommend bold high-contrast graphics and colors.

A few concerns regarding recycled stocks:

  • Recycled stocks can be slightly less uniform and a bit more flexible than non-recycled virgin stocks.
  • UV gloss varnish is not recommended, as it makes the stock harder to recycle.
  • Recycled stocks create more dust when moving through the press, causing more "hickeys" (irregularities in the ink coverage) than normal. To help hide these, we recommend use of images instead uniform color fills and positive type instead of floods of background color with type knocked out.

Samples? - just ask!
