New Environmental Award for Print 4 Ltd

Print 4 Ltd, based in Bullwell, Nottingham, have recently claimed their first prize in the 'Solutions for the Environment' category at The Solutions Awards 2019.   

This success came about with the help of a small group of Nottingham Trent University (NTU) students. In June this year, Print 4 Ltd joined forces with NTU on one of their annual employability initiatives, Grads4Nottm. This is an NTU-exclusive two-week work experience project which focuses on graduate retention in the city. A select group of students from a range of academic disciplines temporarily joined Print 4 Ltd to launch a green marketing campaign, with the aim of reflecting the brand's positive approach towards the environment. Whilst on the project the students pushed the company to enter the Awards.

This Award also goes hand in hand with their BPIF Environmental Seal of Excellence which supports the company's commitment to sustainable print solutions alongside ISO 14001 and 9001 accreditations. It doesn't stop there either, they also play their part in the national 'Printers Against Plastics' mission, they have employees planting trees and their new flooring choice is made from recycled water bottles and 100% PVC-free fabric.

Matt Boam, Managing Director, said, "Change can come from all of us; commit yourself to positive action right now and help turn the hot tap off on climate change. We all need our planet."

Dawn Reid, Regional Director for the area added, "I had the pleasure of meeting the students in their first week at Print 4 so it's great that their work experience also led to an award - what a great result for them and the company."
