Green Initiatives

With climate change being at the forefront of challenges that the world will face this century, we offer our clients many eco-friendly programs and options that help reduce the manufacturing carbon footprint and promote a greener, healthier planet.

Plant-A-Tree

Global PSD uses pulp trees grown on tree farms for our paper products, which are trees specifically planted for paper manufacturing. Pulp trees grow extremely quickly and efficiently, and the use of these trees avoids the felling of any naturally-growing trees and the resulting deforestation.

Global PSD has also partnered with American Forests, the nation’s oldest nonprofit citizens’ conservation organization and a world leader in planting trees for environmental restoration. Tree planting is recognized as an effective element of the climate change solution, and is one that carries benefits beyond simple carbon sequestration. Through American Forests’ Plant-A-Tree program, Global PSD replants 17 trees for every ton of paper used to create one of our [client’s] projects.

Global Re-Leaf

Meanwhile, Global ReLeaf is American Forests’ education and action program that helps individuals, organizations, agencies, and corporations improve the local and global environment by planting and caring for trees. It is our goal to contribute to global reforestation in new Global ReLeaf projects across the country and the globe.

Soy Inks

As opposed to traditional petroleum-based ink, soy ink is an environmentally friendly, healthy, and safe approach to printing that takes only a small amount of energy to make.

Because soy ink has very low levels of VOCs (volatile organic compounds), using this type of ink can also help with air pollution and consumer health by minimizing emissions.

Soy ink is also a helpful component in the paper recycling process because it can be removed more easily out of paper during the de-inking process of recycling compared to regular ink. This allows the recycled paper to have less damage to its paper fibers and have a brighter appearance.

Recycled Paper

Global PSD offers post-consumer recycled paper for all projects, as well as FSC certified paper components.

Phthalate-free Laminations & Water-based Varnishes

At Global PSD, we use phthalate-free laminations to avoid contaminating our environment with diethyl phthalate, a synthetic substance commonly used to make plastics more flexible.

Additionally, we also promote the use of water-based varnishes, which do not contain any toxic additives found in traditional varnishes, such as acrylic.
