Over 5 million tonnes of paper ends up in landfill every year.

In the developed world landfill sites are still the most popular disposal route for paper.

Paper emits methane whilst decomposing – a potent greenhouse gas.

In 1993, a life cycle analysis showed that 78m tonnes of carbon equivalent were emitted by decomposing landfill sites. The same amount was emitted by the usage of fossil fuels during the rest of the paper cycle.

When you have finished with your digitally printed publication it does not go to landfill, does not decompose, and it does not release any nasty emissions.
Once you have finished with your digital print if you really don’t want to file your copy away let us know and we'll delete it ending up in our computer server recycling bin, NOT your household waste.
