Stewardship as a way to work

Sustainability

We care for people and planet, and we aim to keep our processes and waste as clean as possible.

Our Bible paper is FSC certified, this certification guarantees that our paper originates from responsibly managed forests. By sourcing our paper exclusively from within the European Union, we aim to reduce the environmental impact associated with transportation. And by utilizing European Bible paper, we actively work towards minimizing the ecological footprint of our paper products.

To ensure responsible waste management, we carefully separate our paper waste, allowing it to be professionally recycled. This approach eliminates any unnecessary loss of paper and contributes to a circular economy.

We use UV inks formulated to be VOC-free, solvent-free, ITX-free, and Phthalate-free. These ink formulations support a greener printing process, aligning with our dedication to environmental responsibility. By choosing these low-impact inks, we aim to minimize potential harm to the environment.
