Got Green Printing

Got Green Printing.com was founded to provide consumers the highest quality printed
materials at a low cost while limiting waste and harm to the environment. Their commitment to their customers is indelibly linked to their responsibility to the environment. Got Green Printing.com is helping to make environmentally-friendly printing accessible to all businesses, large and small, by offering the lowest prices available. Got Green Printing.com prides themselves on their quick turnaround times (3-5 business days plus shipping) and even offer FREE ground shipping on almost every item! They offer free local delivery for large quantity orders.

Their environmental printing commitment is commendable. All of their printing is done with soy and vegetable based inks. They offer customers a choice of recycled paper, FSC Certified paper, 100% recycled seeded blooming paper, and paper produced from trees grown specifically for paper making, instead of those harvested illegally. Their UV and Aqueous coatings are also unique in that they contain very low to zero VOC’s (Volatile Organic Compounds) which are known to harm surrounding environments. They offset their electric and carbon emissions with 100% Wind-Powered Renewable Energy Credits (REC's) and Verified Emissions Reductions (VER) projects, and donate a portion of their profits to several environmental conservation organizations including The Nature Conservancy, The Ocean Conservancy and the National Wildlife Federation.

To get a feel for their work, Got Green Printing.com is happy to provide paper samples, just fill out their sample request form on-line. The Got Green Printing.com website is well designed and easy to navigate. Visit the FAQ section to get started.

We sent Got Green Printing.com a color jpeg file of our business card design. We found their staff to be most helpful and efficient. We were really impressed with their super fast turnaround time. The business cards were printed on sturdy card stock and coated with a matte finish. The printing quality was very professional, and the colors were vivid and bright, as they appeared in the jpeg file that we sent. The cards didn't stink of toxic VOCS and we felt really proud knowing that eco-friendly materials were used in the production of the cards. The real test came when we visited the ABC Kids Trade Show last week, to debut the cards. We received many compliments about our business cards and people remarked at the quality and printing. They were equally impressed to hear that these are eco-friendly business cards.

Got Green Printing.com offers affordable priced, high quality printing which will help you make a very good first impression. Select to design online or submit your own file, using their templates. What could be simpler? Not in the market for a traditional business card? Consider a mommy/daddy play date card. You meet another mommy in the park or library and your kids get along nicely and you want to exchange contact details for a future play date. Just whip out on one of these cards with your contact details on it and save yourself time and the hassle of finding pen and a paper.

Although we are very much living in a virtual age, there is still something to be said for a high quality, printed product which is tangible enough for you to hold in your hand or display. With the holiday season just around the corner, consider ordering some Greeting Cards or Postcards. Also on offer are eco-friendly stickers, letterheads, envelopes, magnets and more.

The blooming seeded paper sounds so unique and a terrific way to "recycle"

Great article. Printing green is so important, a lot of people say I care to much, I don't think so. There is another printer called Cary Printing that is the first printer certified by the PEFC which is a pretty big deal. They are really good, have good prices and since they were the first official "green" printer in the US, I like them because I know they have the most experience in "green" printing.
