In May, new electric car charging ports were installed at the Danilo office, plus an ongoing project with Climate Partner is under way to externally verify Danilo’s carbon emissions and formulate a carbon reduction plan. Danilo says it is also working hard to assess its internal processes and identify key areas in the business where it can reduce or reuse resources and introduce a more circular economy into the business The company is continuing to collaborate with retailers and licensors to ensure it can deliver products that are both sustainable and commercial.

Davora phases out plastics Davora, the specialist ethnic and minor season publisher, tells us it is making good progress on its journey to remove plastics from products. The company recently committed to phasing out plastic cello wrap on all single cards, and has now begun the process on its multipacks, too. Just launched is a new range of multipack cards for the occasions of Eid, Diwali and Jewish New Year. Each pack contains six cards and six envelopes in a cardboard wrap, fastened at the bottom by a sticker. The outer wrap also has a fold-out eurohook to give retailers a choice of ways to merchandise the products. Like the cards themselves, the outer wrap is manufactured in the UK with FSC accredited boards using vegetable-based inks. The new style multipack will be used on all new designs going forward while existing stock of cello wrapped cards are depleted.

22 years of eco production The Eco-friendly Card Co has just renewed its FSC chain of custody – marking its 22nd consecutive year of FSC certification. Back in 2006, most products were FSC certified MIX (paper from responsibly managed forests) but now all its stock line greeting cards are printed on FSC recycled board. The publisher has once again offset all carbonemissions associated with paper used in its products through the World Land Trust. Director Sue Morrish said: “This year, in addition to offsetting paper used for products, we have also offset all the paper used in our brochures and marketing materials as well as other paper products that fall outside the scope of FSC, for example recycled greyboard.”
