Sustainability at ATEC Print & Labels | Eco-Friendly UK Printing

Environment

We recycle everything we can at ATEC Print and Labels. From aluminium plates and metal ink tins to plastic ink cartridges, left over ink, paper, cardboard, plastic wrapping and even wooden pallets.

Our Commitment to Sustainability

At ATEC Print and Labels, we believe that high-quality printing shouldn't come at the cost of the environment. That’s why we are committed to sustainable printing practices, reducing waste, using eco-friendly materials, and minimising our carbon footprint.

We use responsibly sourced paper, including FSC-certified and 100% recycled options, ensuring that our products come from sustainably managed forests.
Trimmings and offcuts are kept to a minimum and are always recycled.
Overprints of a sensitive nature (i.e. print that includes customer details) is shredded on-site and recycled.
Waste is reduced as much as possible, and disposed of via a licensed agency

♻️ Responsible Materials

We prioritise the use of FSC-certified and recycled paper stocks across our product range. For large-format printing, we use eco-friendly latex inks, which are water-based, odour-free, and safer for both people and the planet.

☀️ Powered by Solar Energy

In 2024, we took a major step toward greener operations by installing solar panels at our facility. This helps reduce our reliance on fossil fuels and lowers our overall carbon footprint — one print job at a time.
