Our eco-responsible alternatives
EG Print is committed to promoting projects with a reduced environmental impact through the constant search for sustainable alternatives.
We offer a complete range of innovative, eco-responsible solutions that require fewer resources to design and that will leave fewer traces for future generations.
Eco-responsible sourcing
Following the results of our Print Carbon Audit, we have strengthened our Responsible Purchasing Policy.
Thanks to in-depth work with our suppliers and partners, we have built up a complete range of tried and tested eco-responsible materials.
We have selected these Green printing media according to three main criteria:
- Quality
- Impact on the environment, throughout their life cycle
- Design
This approach enables us to offer you innovative and differentiating eco-responsible products to reduce your environmental impact.

Nature of materials & environmental impact
High environmental impact
Conventional products
Frequently contain fossil substances that are harmful to the environment
Recycled products
Products made from recycled materials (production offcuts, recycling of used media, etc.)
Green products
Eco-responsible products that are naturally biodegradable
Limited environmental impact
Sustainable labels & certifications
Sustainable transition: Exhibit Group today
Our ambition is to offer exclusively eco-responsible materials over the next few years. In the interests of transparency, here's a progress report on our green sourcing. Here is the proportion of sustainable materials in our catalogue:
90%
of textiles
eco-responsible
It's a sure bet!
We are now proud to be able to offer almost all our tarpaulin and textile products in recycled and/or green versions (PVC-free, Oeko-Tex, Ecocert Greenlife, etc.).

rigid
eco-responsible
Very encouraging results.
We have listed a wide range of recycled and eco-designed rigid panels (Reach, Rohs, recyclable...), effective alternatives to PVC and aluminium composite substrates.
In search of new solutions.
This is one of the most complicated categories to convert. We have carried out extensive tests and continue to work with suppliers to offer effective solutions, particularly based on recycled polypropylene. The results are promising.

Textiles: a reduced carbon footprint
Choosing textile media is an effective way of reducing the environmental footprint of large-format communications. Our eco-friendly canvases are ideal for retail, outdoor décor and monumental signage.

Polyester: an almost infinitely recyclable material
Textile sublimation requires polyester fabrics. This fibre is not natural, but has the advantage of being highly recyclable. This 'circular' production method in no way alters the quality of the end product, and helps to control and limit the resources required.
Eco-responsible films & adhesives
This category represents a real technical challenge for manufacturers: conventional adhesives and liners contain solvents, glues and coatings that are polluting by nature.
For your event signage, window dressing, stands and decoration projects, we have a range of innovative green adhesives and associated eco-friendly varnishing solutions to extend their life.
For applications indoors or in areas open to the public, plasticiser-free films that are both environmentally friendly and harmless to health are increasingly in demand.

Polypropylene, an alternative to traditional PVC vinyls
This thermoplastic polymer, one of the most neutral plastics, contains only two elements: carbon and hydrogen. Its decomposition and combustion do not release toxic products into the environment. As a result, it can be recycled rather than sent to landfill.
Eco-responsible rigid
Rigid panels are essential for trade fairs, where they have traditionally been used, and they represent a major challenge for the events industry.
Convincing PVC-free alternatives that can be recycled and recycled after use are being developed for signage, stands, windows and decoration.
To avoid the use of traditional, particularly polluting PVC rigid, we offer you eco-responsible solutions.
Thanks to our panels made from recycled production waste, polypropylene and FSC-certified cellulose, your displays, shop windows, POS advertising, stands and decorations for events and long-term use will be more sustainable.

Cardboard: a highly recyclable material
Lightweight and robust, cardboard is largely made from renewable resources: sawmill chips or prunings from forestry operations.
At the end of its useful life, cardboard can be reused up to 10 times. Which makes it one of the best recycled materials.
The plus: For your stands and event spaces, opt for furniture made from recycled cardboard: it's particularly light, strong and very easy to assemble.
