C-K Graphics is FSC Certified, as well as an EnviroStars 4-Star member
FSC stands for Forest Stewardship Council, which is a chain of custody program that attempts to insure that wood products are harvested responsibly from forests worldwide. The FSC system tracks and verifies the presence of those raw materials as they travel through the manufacturing process. Only 10% of the world’s forests are certified, so producing your printed piece on papers from FSC forests puts a stamp on your project that confirms your commitment to environmental quality. Call C-K Graphics to discuss how an FSC paper might enhance your next project by putting the FSC logo prominently on your next piece.
EnviroStars is a program that certifies local businesses with an environmental quality rating. EnviroStars inspects and advises on issues covering a wide spectrum of environmental standards. Everything from lighting to material and chemical disposal procedures are evaluated and assigned a rating on a one to 5 star scale. At C-K Graphics we’ve taken advantage of conservation opportunities and we’re proud to be a EnviroStars 4-star member!
