Being environmentally conscious as a business owner is important today; but ensuring that your are partnering with businesses that are environmentally  conscious is also your responsibility.

Choosing a printing company that has a green policy is important. At Blue Hill Press in Canton, MA we care about the environment. We want to promote a cleaner and greener world, and we are committed to environmentally sound practices.

  • We use papers that are recycled, recyclable, and FSC certified
  • We use environmentally friendly vegetable based inks (soybean and linseed oil)
  • We use solutions that contain very little or no volatile organic compounds
  • We recycle ink, paper, cartons, pallets and aluminum
  • We utilize computer-to-plate technology to bypass film processing and eliminate silver bearing waste
We also provide opportunities for your business to “go green”. When making printing decisions, keep in mind that there are many earth-friendly options when choosing your paper type and printer inks.  Using paper and inks that are made of alternative materials helps reduce the amount of dangerous and wasteful substances.  And we can print envelopes for you with a "Please Recycle" logo for no extra charge.

We encourage you to go green, and in the spirit of 'reduce, reuse, and recycle,' remember that Catalogs, brochures, newsletters, direct mail, and flyers are prime candidates for recycling. Make greener decisions with recycled paper and add recycling symbols to your printed work.

Did you know that at Blue Hill Press, our day-to-day business operations are powered in part from wind-generated electricity?  That windmill graphic at the top of our website means that when it comes to being good stewards of the earth, we walk the talk.

To help promote a cleaner and greener world, Blue Hill Press is committed to sound practices. We purchase production supplies that are made of recycled products, we use natural inks (soy and linseed-based), and we produce no silver-bearing waste.  We recycle ink, paper, cartons, pallets and aluminum, and, we use computer-to-plate technology to bypass film processing and eliminate silver-bearing waste, and we’ve been using direct-to-plate technology since 2007.

We are proud to serve our clientele in the most environmentally responsible manner possible. But we also provide opportunities for you to “go green”.  We provide you with environmentally conscious paper and inks.   Due to the increase in awareness of global resources, there are now many earth-friendly options when choosing your paper type and printer inks.  Using paper and inks that are made of alternative materials helps reduce the amount of dangerous and wasteful substances.  Envelopes can now also be printed with a "Please Recycle" logo for no extra charge.    

Catalogs, brochures, newsletters, direct mail, and flyers are prime candidates for recycling.  Being conscious of what it truly means to 'reduce, reuse, and recycle,' can have a big impact on the earth's most vital resources.
