Rethink® The Way We Print

The benefits of having your material printed by at+m using the Rethink® printing process are three-fold:

  1. It is no more expensive than traditional printing methods.
  2. There is no compromise in the quality of your work.
  3. Your product will have been produced with as little environmental impact as possible.

In addition to using recycled paper and vegetable-based inks, we constantly monitor our entire production process to ensure we're having as little impact on the environment as possible.

Environmentally responsible printing is more than just using vegetable based inks and recycled paper. It’s making sure every aspect of the process is assessed for it’s environmental impacts and putting actions in place to remove or reduce those risks.

The core of our Environmental Management System is: An entire yearly site assessment resulting in our “Aspects & Impacts Register”.

This records the possible and real environmental aspects of every areas of at+m. Each aspect is assessed for its impact and assigned a priority ranking. From this ranking a set of Objectives and Targets are set to address those areas highlighted in the Aspects and Impacts Register. Unlike any other Tasmanian printer we have ISO14001:2004 Certification which means we are externally audited by an international organisation to make sure we can prove our claims.

The Rethink® EMS covers three main areas:

  1. Products, Technology and Processes

    Site Infrastructure, Data Management, Pre-Press, Printing, Inks, Papers

  2. Resource Management/Impact — Environmental Footprint

    Chemical Usage, Power Usage, Water Consumption, Waste Generation, Disposal and Recycling

  3. Community Awareness and Education

    Sponsorship and practicing what we preach
