WPCF members underline the importance of reducing the environmental footprint in the graphic industry

In their recent meeting, members of the World Print & Communication Forum (WPCF) recognised the efforts of the graphic industry to promote a circular economy and mitigate climate change. Demonstrating environmental action is becoming an important prerequisite for many printing companies. This is being driven by legislation and customer requirements. One important area of action is climate protection through reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Calculating the carbon footprint of printing activities and its products is a crucial first step to helping clients, consumers, and other stakeholders understand the environmental impact of their activities. WPCF sees the need for a common understanding and internationally recognised assessment criteria so that there can be transparency and consistency in reporting emissions.
