Our Commitment to Sustainability:
Borealis Press dedication to the environment is woven into every aspect of our business. From our paper suppliers to our energy consumption, we strive to minimize our footprint and contribute to a healthier planet.
Carbon Neutral Paper Suppliers:
Our paper suppliers are actively working toward carbon neutrality, investing in wind energy and carbon offsets to reduce our collective impact and support the growth of renewable energy sources.
Sustainable Fiber Sourcing:
Our paper mills source environmentally sustainable fiber, with a focus on using 100% post-consumer recycled paper. We're committed to reversing the trend of paper waste in landfills. We require our suppliers to provide documentation demonstrating sound environmental practices and responsible forestry management, prioritizing FSC-certified wood pulp whenever possible.
Elemental Chlorine-Free and Process Chlorine-Free Paper:
Borealis uses fiber paper that is elemental chlorine-free (ECF), and our 100% recycled paper meets the even more rigorous standards for Process Chlorine Free (PCF) coding, ensuring the most environmentally preferable type of paper.
USA Made:
We are committed to manufacturing here in the USA, guaranteeing quality and supporting American jobs. Our products are designed and printed in New England.
100% Post-Consumer Recycled Paper:
By printing our cards on 100% post-consumer recycled paper, we achieve significant annual savings in trees, water, energy, solid waste, and greenhouse gas emissions.
100% Solar & Wind Powered:
Our cards are printed using renewable electricity that powers the entire on-site printing operation, equivalent to the energy use of 10 average New England homes annually.
Print-on-Demand:
To further minimize waste and ensure we only produce what is needed, we utilize a print-on-demand model. This eliminates the need for excess inventory and reduces our environmental impact.
Borealis tries to have a positive impact on the Earth and each other, every day.
Thank you!
