Moving Beyond Certifications!

It’s more than just ink, toner and paper. All of our inks, plates, cartridges, cleaning rags are recycled. Since 2004—our waste management systems has grown to over 75% recycled materials to less than 25% waste—and we’re still looking at ways to minimize that.

We have been on the forefront of environmentally friendly printing by offering small print runs at cost effective prices and reducing our clients’ risk of print materials becoming obsolete.

We stock several brands of premium recycled stocks – FSC & Green-E certified are the signatures we look for. With competitive pricing and no compromise of print quality, Allegra makes it easy to make the environmental switch.
