It is important for printers to understand sustainability encompasses more than just environmental issues. Corporate social responsibility is another major component. As a result, the criteria are based on all three key elements of sustainability—people, planet and profits.
The criteria will be beta tested during the upcoming months and modifications will be made, as needed, prior to the registry launch this summer. Those interested in viewing the criteria can visit the SGP Partnership website and refer to the Registration Program document on the “Become an SGP Printer” page. SGP has set up a comment section on the website and is encouraging the printing community and other interested parties to provide feedback on the criteria during the beta-testing phase of the project. Comments will be accepted until April 18, 2008.
