We have turned over a new leaf. As of October 19th 2010, Warwick Printing is proud to announce we have become Southern Alberta's first Forest Stewardship Council® certified print supplier. We are now able to identify FSC® certified paper by using our COC (chain of custody) system and specific FSC labels on any product produced in our plant. Our friendly sales staff can show you how easy it is to demonstrate your commitment to environmental responsibility.

Who is the Forest Stewardship Council?

The FSC is an international, non-profit organization that supports environmentally appropriate, socially beneficial, and economically viable management of the world's forests. The FSC was founded in 1993 in Canada, by representatives from environmental groups, the timber industry, the forestry profession, Aboriginal organizations, and community forest groups from more than 25 countries. The FSC operates through its network of National Initiatives in 40 countries. There are over 100 million hectares in more than 80 countries certified according to FSC standards, and thousands of products are produced using FSC certified fibre and carrying the FSC trademark.

Why use FSC?

In many forests around the world, logging still contributes to habitat destruction, water pollution, displacement of indigenous peoples, and violence against people who work in the forest and the wildlife that dwells there. Using an FSC Certified Printer and FSC Certified Paper ensures that your paper has come from a well managed source.

What products can be printed on FSC certified paper?

We can produce anything from presentation folders to magazines, mailers and envelopes, as long as it is on FSC Certified Paper, we can identify it as FSC certified.

Is FSC certified paper recycled?

What varieties of FSC certified paper are available?

FSC certified papers are available in a variety of colours, textures and finishes, from silk to glossy and linen to felt, your Warwick Printing sales representative can assist you in selecting the right paper for your project.
