Conservation = Philosophy, Products, and Practices

Philosophy
 

Resource and energy conservation is good for our customers, good for our company, and good for our planet. Since 1997, conservation has been a cornerstone of our business model. Using 100% renewable energy from a local wind farm, reducing waste, watching our electricity use, and recycling our byproducts all reduce our costs, which enables us to provide affordable, high quality tickets and print products to the most important element of our company: you, the customer.

Recycled Paper

Finally, our search is over. As many of our customers know, we have been searching for recycled paper for quite some time. Every one we tested resulted in quality from very mediocre to simply terrible. Now, this has changed! We are very pleased to announce our new recycled paper partner (say that fast!): New Leaf. New Leaf is THE pioneer in recycled paper. We will be using New Leaf's industry-leading Primavera Silk line which has the highest post-consumer waste content you can find in a coated sheet: 80% recycled, 60% post-consumer waste, FSC certified, and a dazzling 93 bright for clean, crisp display—all with the professional, understated sheen of silk. In addition to manufacturing the greatest recycled paper on earth, New Leaf has pioneered industry-leading operational and manufacturing processes. As New Leaf puts it: Pure joy, for a purer Earth.

Xerox Partner

We have a longstanding partnership with Xerox, a company recognized around the world for sound environmental practices. Your beautiful full-color tickets and print products are printed on Xerox Docucolor high-speed digital presses.

As part of this partnership:

  • We participate in Xerox’s Green World Alliance program, which collects and recycles millions of toner cartridges each year, including ours.
  • When we upgrade our printers, our old printers are remanufactured for reuse, which saves energy, materials, and landfill space.
  • Xerox participates in the U.S. EPA Environmental Performance Track program, which recognizes top environmental performance among manufacturers.

UPS: Our Transportation Network

We have been partners with UPS since our inception. UPS has the largest fleet of natural gas trucks in the world. Natural gas is more fuel efficient and emits dramatically less carbon than gas or diesel trucks.

Practices
 

1) Energy

100% of the energy we use every day is 100% renewable and 100% carbon free. We are located just 2 miles away from the largest windfarm in Montana. When you see and touch your stunning tickets from TicketPrinting.com, you can rest assured that they were created with 100% renewable, carbon-free energy.

2) Operations

  • Through our rigorous quality assurance and control programs, we have always set up our order processing and printing to minimize paper use.
  • Our quality assurance programs ensure minimal paper byproduct, and rarely require reprints, which consume excess paper and toner.
  • We run an efficient operation so our overall electricity use is conserved.
  • We practice telecommuting. Where feasible, we allow employees to work from home, thus reducing energy use and emissions.
  • We encourage our customers to utilize ground shipment service, which has lower energy consumption due to freight consolidation.

3) Recycling

  • We recycle all shipping and packaging cardboard and paper.
  • We recycle all paper byproduct from our operations.

Giving Back

Finally, we always believe in giving back and supporting conservation organizations. To this end, we donate 5% of our annual net income each year to conservation organizations.
