Our approach
eco-responsible
Every day, our productions are also thinking about tomorrow.
We are aware of the specific impact of our professions. As members of the Climate Convention and co-founders of the Climate House, we take action every day to reduce our environmental footprint.
Eco-design, local production, ecological printing, reuse of production waste, recyclable materials and constant search for sustainable alternatives, upcycling of used materials...
Less impact for a better future.
"As craftsmen and manufacturers, we are aware of the footprint left by our activity and our tangible achievements. Reducing our environmental impact and integrating our waste into a virtuous cycle are an integral part of our strategic direction.

Made in France
From the outset, we've always favoured "made in France" by encouraging local employment. Our industrial sites are all located in France, which enables us to favour short supply chains.
Reduction at source
Our manufacturing processes are regularly reviewed to optimise performance, save energy and reduce waste.
We have introduced rigorous stock management and concentrate orders with our suppliers in order to reduce over-packaging and optimise transport.
We apply a sustainable purchasing policy and our range of green materials is constantly expanding.
Production
eco-responsible
EG Print has one of the most efficient fleets of machinery in France, and we have focused our investments on equipment that minimises our impact on the environment.
All our large-format digital printing machines are 100% solvent-free: UV, odourless, VOC-free water-based inks, sublimation.
As pioneers, we have been investing in textile sublimation, an innovative and environmentally-friendly technology, for over 10 years.
Recovering production waste
We have set up an advanced selective sorting system: 17 streams of non-hazardous industrial waste are sorted directly on our production sites.
- 100% of cardboard packaging is recycled and reused to make cardboard and newsprint;
- 100% of plastic films are recycled by the plastics industry;
- 100% of wooden pallets are crushed, recycled and transformed (fuel, paper/cardboard, chipboard, pallets);
- 100% paper is recycled and reused to make new paper.
