Eco Print are officially Award Winning Printers!!

Eco Print has won a Highly Commended Award for Green Media, Marketing and Communications in the Wiltshire Wildlife Trust’s Green Business Awards.

The Wiltshire Wildlife Trust’s Green Business Awards were established to reward businesses in Wiltshire and Swindon that are making serious efforts to minimise their impact on the environment. The Award Ceremony was held on Friday 16th October 2009 at the Four Pillars Cotswold Water Park Hotel, with guest speaker Dick Strawbridge, MBE.

The only winners in their category, Eco Print’s committed environmental policy has marked them out as leaders in the region.

Wiltshire Wildlife Trust was impressed by Eco Print’s demonstation of effort in reusing materials that are routinely discarded such as their range of exotic papers made from rhino poo, elephant poo, straw, beer barrel dregs and bank notes to name a few.

Founder and Managing Director Graham Addison says:

“I am very proud to win this ‘Wiltshire Wildlife Corporate Green’ award. It makes the extra effort of starting and running an Eco-conscious company all the more worthwhile and gives Eco Print the recognition it deserves as a leading Eco Printer in Wiltshire. I hope it gets our message out there to the green community that there is an alternative to conventional printing which gives great results whilst minimising damage to the environment”.

Far from resting on its successes, Eco Print continuously seeks to improve its eco-credentials. Internally, Eco Print constantly evaluates the effect its working practices have upon the environment: from telecoms to engineering design through to product disposal, always opting for an ecologically sound alternative. Externally, Eco Print has recently helped a local church maintain its Eco-Congregation status by producing its print materials, as well as supporting schools in the national Eco-Schools award scheme.
