University of Arkansas In-plant Gets FSC Certified
“We’re reclaiming about three tons a month of manufacturing byproduct,” he reports.
FSC certification, Werninger says, has an added, more official element.
“We are able to document that we are doing the right thing,” he says.
Producing FSC-certified jobs does add extra steps, he notes.
“There’s a lot of paperwork that’s necessary to certify a print project,” he says. Still, the in-plant does not charge extra to customers who want their jobs certified. He acknowledges that customers have not exactly been beating down his door to request this, but he sees the in-plant’s certification as a proactive effort.
