GREEN IS A NECESSITY
Shortage of non-renewable resources
Energy over-demand
CO2 emissions
Global warming
Deforestation
Climate change
THE FUTURE WILL BE
DARK IF WE DON’T GO
GREEN
Looking at this gloomy outlook, governments, industries and associations are reacting.
As a result of this increasing green awareness, the EUROPEAN UNION is issuing Directives to combat climate change, preserve biodiversity, reduce health problems from pollution and use natural resources more responsibly:
Climate change
Environmental health
Sustainable development
Independent and non-governmental organizations are also promoting eco-friendly activities. In the case of the PAPER INDUSTRY, three main independent organizations are working to promote the responsible management of the world’s forests.
SUSTAINABILITY IN THE GRAPHIC INDUSTRY
The introduction in the graphic market of more environmentally-
friendly materials and printing processes is not a trend but the
response of this industry to a global green necessity.
• UVI printers
• Water-based, Eco-solvent inks
• Environmental-friendly substrates: FALCONBOARD
The range of environmental products and systems is growing all
the time:
GREEN AWARENESS IS BECOMING MORE AND MORE IMPORTANT IN THE GRAPHIC INDUSTRY
Why to walk by the green track hand in hand with FALCONBOARD?
Unlike traditional foam boards made from plastics (PE, PU, PS and PVC), FALCONBOARD fulfills all requirements for greener printing practices.
• 100% Recyclable
• Only graphic display board made of natural,
renewable virgin and recycled paper honeycomb
material
• Renewable and reusable
• Consists of recycled core with white clay-coated or
natural linerboard facings
• Emits zero volatile organic compounds (VOCs)
• Free of hazardous substances
• SFI label certification
SUSTAINABILITY KEY FEATURES
BENEFITS
• Reduces costs of disposal
• Printing capabilities better to foam boards; offers
same printing quality on a greener graphic substrate
• Excellent flatness and printability
• Outstanding rigidity

Hexacomb® - The structure
The honeycomb structure is the most effective core structure
regarding pressure resistance,
structural integrity and the amount of
material applied.
Paper is the most efficient core
material regarding
cost/weight/performance
Applications
• Constructive
• Transport Packaging
• Protective Packaging
• Point of sales
• Hexacomb® as constructive material
in sandwich constructions
• Hexacomb ® used to optimize all
kinds of transport
• Hexacomb® used to protect
individual products
• Hexacomb® used as information
carrier and display
Trends in the Signage & Graphics Industry
• UV-Curable Inkjet Printers
• Increased interest in UV-curable wide format technology
• Environmental friendliness and ease of printing on rigid surfaces
• Sustainability
• End-users assessing “greener” production capabilities when selecting printing
partners
• Printing firms becoming more green-conscious, driven by local market
demands and new business opportunities
– Using greener printing techniques and supplies
– Reducing carbon footprint
– Recycling & other programs
• Sustainable print options being pulled-through supply chain as more end-users
adopt sustainable strategies and stewardship programs.
