Press Release
Bizcard is an environmentally friendly online print marketing company. We help SMB create high quality business cards, postcards, direct mails campaigns and other print products/services. From our inception, we have made a commitment to develop environmentally friendly printing solutions.
During production we have eliminated the photochemical-dependent process of making plates by using digital presses. We are able to significantly reduce the chemical usage in the process. We do our printing in-house to maintain consistency and quality by keeping all of our operations under our control. This also allows us to closely monitor and regulate our environmental impact.
We either use recycled paper or purchase resources that come from responsibly managed forests lands.
Our customers are encourage to purchase products that use 30 to 40% less paper than the industry standard.
We are taking our efforts beyond our production line as well. For example we use a special film on all the windows to reduce the heat within the building and decrease our energy consumption. All the lights in our building were changed from Standard with normal transformers to Fluorescent Electronic bulbs. Our bathroom sinks are automated reducing the amount of water being wasted.
We encourage our team members to carpool and to bring their own food to reduce the carbon footprint produced when driving to restaurants at lunch time.
However, as we grow, our positive impact grows as well. As part of our mission statement, we seek out partnerships with nonprofit organizations that are committed to social responsibility. By building partnerships with reliable non-profit organizations, such as American Forests (see http://www.bizcard.com/plant_tree__v.hd), we are striving for nothing less than a complete reversal of our environmental impact.Through our online, grass roots effort, we hope to gain the attention of more like minded consumers, companies and organizations.
