TITLE Sustainable Print and Visual Graphics
Sustainable Packaging Packaging decisions have the potential to drastically impact and reduce Duggal’s excess material and waste consumption.
Sustainable Printing Production Duggal uses 100% VOC-free ink and printing practices, reducing its contributions to environmental and carcinogenic pollutants.
Our Packsize Machine eliminates the need to purchase pre-made boxes and identifies the right-sized corrugated packaging for our products.
During the production printing and manufacturing processes, Duggal optimizes material use.
This process ultimately contributes to lower carbon emissions, fuel needs, and packing material. Using SFI certified cardboard, Packsize eliminates empty spaces and filler material in packages, making disposing and recycling the package easier for the client.
• An inventory of materials is kept to ensure all possible material is utilized for a number of different projects.
• Duggal is actively consolidating suppliers and materials to be the most efficient we can be in our production and waste.
This process ultimately contributes to lower carbon emissions, fuel needs, and packing material by using cardboard that is:
• Extra rigid boards, cutoffs, and scrap material are separated and stored for future test prints and proofing.
• Sustainable Forestry Initiative (SFI) certified.
• Any excess large quantities of substrate that is not used is donated to Material for the Arts (MFTA), Duggal’s partner which donates excess material to New York City’s creatives, educators, and artists.
• Manufactured in Pennsylvania, USA.
• Made of 61% recycled content.
• Biodegradable within 11 months, according to FTC guidelines.
Sustainable Lightbox Production Duggal’s silicone edge graphic (SEG) lightbox frame systems are 100% custom built, made of 30% recycled aluminum and printed of material made of recycled content. Every profile is designed to Duggal specifications for consistency, durability and material reduction, and built to last well beyond the average retail store lifespan.
The SEG Lightbox Frame can be 100% recycled through local metal recycling services.
