The Printing Industry...

Our Paper Consumption

Industrialized nations, with 20 percent of the world’s population, consume 87 percent of the world’s printing and writing papers.

The United States produced and uses 1/3 of the world’s paper. That’s over 300 kg per person per year, almost 2.5 times more than the amount of meat they consume in the same period.

The UK is the worlds 5th largest consumer of paper products. In 2005 the UK consumed 12.5million tonnes of paper, of which 7.6m tonnes were imported.

The global consumption of paper has increased 20 fold over the last century and has tripled in the last 30 years alone.

With an estimated 940 million people worldwide having access to the Internet, almost a sixth of the world’s population, there is a wide audience for digital publishing products.
All our digital prints can be kept online for as long as you like, as we have a yearly renewal policy.
