Acorn Web Offset Join Two Sides To Promote Sustainable Print Magazines

Two Sides is excited to announce its newest member and supporter, Acorn Web Offset, the specialist A5 and A4 magazine printer.

Acorn Web is a specialist magazine printer of weekly, fortnightly, monthly, bi-monthly and quarterly periodicals. They produce high-quality, low cost magazines printed in A4 and A5 format, along with printed catalogues.

“We’re delighted Acorn is now a member of Two Sides. Sustainability is a highly important subject with our customers wanting more information in relation to their printing requirements. We are constantly looking at ways to reduce not just our waste paper but all waste that we produce both in the manufacturing plant and in the office, segregating and sending for recycling. We have both Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) and Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification schemes (PEFC) Chain of custody certification for responsibly sourced paper. This ensures printed jobs can be tracked from the forest, through the pulp producer, paper mill, paper merchant, Acorn, and then to the customer.

By joining Two Sides we can communicate to our customers just how sustainable our industry and print really is.” says Mark Roberts, Managing Director for Acorn. “With Acorn Web, you can be assured that we are working towards a better environment.”

American Forest & Paper Association (AF&PA) President and CEO Donna Harman issued the following statement regarding Congressional passage of the fiscal year 2017 Omnibus Appropriations bill – legislation that includes language clarifying federal regulatory policy to reflect the carbon-neutrality of forest-based biomass. The U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate passed the measure, and President Trump is expected to sign it into law. “U.S. paper and wood products manufacturers have for seven years sought clear policy direction on the carbon neutrality of forest-based renewable biomass energy. Thanks to Congressional action, federal agencies can now ensure the U.S. is no longer out of step with our global competitors. Today’s action is the type of policy that can foster growth in U.S. manufacturing. click Read More below for more of the story

The Air We Breathe

June 5, is World Environment Day. The 2019 theme is Beat Air Pollution —something we at AF&PA and the greater U.S. paper and wood products industry have been dedicated to for decades. Our latest greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction goal, which is part of AF&PA’s Better Practices, Better Planet 2020 sustainability initiative, aims to reduce emissions from member company facilities by at least 20 percent between 2005 and 2020. Our last sustainability report shows that members achieved a 19.9 percent reduction in 2016, nearly reaching the goal. And this is after they surpassed the previous goal of a 15 percent reduction in GHG emissions in 2014. Members achieved these great reductions by using efficient manufacturing processes, generating carbon-neutral biomass fuel on-site and replacing traditional fossil fuels like oil and coal with less carbon-intensive natural gas. In 2016, carbon-neutral biomass and renewable fuels provided, on average, about two-thirds of member facility energy needs. Click Read More below for additional information.
