Carbon Balanced Program in North America Certifies their First Printer

The North American Carbon Balanced Printer program is proud to announce that it has signed its first partner printer. Based in Salt Lake City, Utah, Hudson Printing has joined the Carbon Balanced Printer program to further reduce its impact on the environment, as well as the impact of its customers.

The Carbon Balanced Printer program offers its partner printers the opportunity to carbon balance their paper and print services. Members of the program are printers that have measured their own carbon footprint, then offset those emissions with the global conservation group World Land Trust to become a certified Carbon Balanced Printer.

World Land Trust uses funds raised through the program to protect and restore threatened natural habitats in Vietnam, Mexico, Ecuador and Guatemala. By protecting these areas of high biodiversity and the species within them, World Land Trust preserves important ecosystems while preventing the release of CO2 into the atmosphere through deforestation and degradation.

The amount of carbon offset by Hudson is equivalent to the preservation of 834,013 m2 of land, or the area covered by 156 NFL football fields.

Sheridan Pennsylvania Adds Komori’s New Lithrone GX840P+C, Eight-Unit Perfecting Press to its Fleet

Sheridan’s Pennsylvania facility (a CJK Group company) is the site of the first Komori Lithrone GX840P+C, Eight-Unit Perfecting Press to be installed in the world. The latest press in the GLX series from Komori features the most productive and robust automation available. Among its many advanced features are Parallel Makeready*, which dramatically shortens makeready times, Smart Sequence* for non-stop automation, A-APC (Asynchronous Automatic Plate Changing System) for fast plate changes, PDC-SX (Spectral Print Density Control – SX), and Full Unit Ink Mist Filtering—all targeted to increase productivity and reduce costs. One of the most significant process changes is the adoption of energy cured inks. UV inks are instantly cured, eliminating all marking concerns on press and in finishing, thus allowing the press to run at higher speeds. Furthermore, a coater is integrated after the 8th unit, which is capable of applying UV or AQ solutions for superior enhancement and protection.
