OUR PRODUCTION HUB
100% CARBON NEUTRAL While we educate our team in the benefits of behavioural change and identify technology and process to reduce our carbon footprint, it is inevitable that we will not be able to neutralise our unavoidable greenhouse gas emissions. In March 2012, we engaged the Carbon Reduction Institute to conduct a carbon audit of our Production Hub and Centres. The audit aims to capture 100% of the carbon emissions which an entity is responsible for. During October 2012, Worldwide pioneered the way forward, becoming WA’s first carbon neutral printing group. To neutralise our unavoidable emissions, we purchase carbon credits in Carbon Credit Projects as determined by the Australian Federal Government National Carbon offset standard.
The facts about paper The myth: Making paper is bad for the environment. The fact: Paper is one of the truly sustainable products.
26
ISO 9001 We are officially accredited with an ISO 9001 Quality Management System certification – the international standard for quality management. We pursued certification to ensure our processes observe global best practice, to explore methods for continuous improvement and to demonstrate our commitment to quality. We want you to have confidence in working with us as your partner in printed packaging. An ISO 9001 Quality Management System certification will help you to do just that.
27
COLOUR CONSISTENCY Our unique Colour Finder demonstrates colour variations on different paper stocks, as well as how colour can be affected by the use of alternate gloss and matt finishes. By utilising the Colour Finder we can ensure colour consistency when printing marketing collateral, adhere to corporate brand guidelines and ensure colour standardisation across all promotional material.
So what does this mean for our customers? Consistent colour appearance job-to-job and month-to-month Proof to print colour fidelity
