All four Shutterfly manufacturing facilities become SGP certified

The Sustainable Green Printing Partnership (SGP), the leading authority in sustainable printing certifications, announced today certification of all four Shutterfly manufacturing facilities. Shutterfly in Ft. Mill, SC was the first to obtain certification in late 2020. Since then, the remaining locations in Plano, TX, Shakopee, MN, and Tempe, AZ achieved certified SGP Facility status.

“At Shutterfly, we are taking action to reduce our impact and make sustainable practices become habit in our operations,” said Dwayne Black, chief of operations, Shutterfly. “We are finding ways to become more energy-efficient, reuse, repurpose and recycle more and use less. Becoming SGP certified validates that we have created a successful foundation for delivering a great customer experience while doing better for the planet.”

“Shutterfly’s commitment to sustainable print operations cannot be overstated. We are pleased to welcome all four manufacturing facilities into the SGP Community,” said Jonathan Graham, SGP chair and TE Connectivity representative. “As the leading online platform for photography and personalized products, Shutterfly furthers its leadership and commitment to a sustainable future. This is a milestone for SGP and Shutterfly as we are committed to leaving our world in a better place.”

Commentary: Welcome to a Better Printing Industry (piworld.com)

One of the great things about my job is I get to spend time talking to people with strong insight about the printing industry. And from a couple of recent exchanges with a couple of the PRINTING United Alliance’s subject matter experts, I’ve concluded that printing is a better industry to work for than it previously has been. Inherently Safer - A couple of months ago, I spoke with Gary Jones, the Alliance’s vice president, environmental, health, and safety affairs. In that discussion, Gary outlined some of the ways printing businesses often fall short of OSHA requirements, and how they can take steps to do what’s required and provide a safe workplace for their employees. More Attractive - Within a soon-to-be released article in Printing Impressions by Adriane Harrison, the Alliance’s vice president of human relations consulting, she says the generation of workers just now coming into our workforce – those known as Gen Z – are most interested in working for employers that care about their physical and mental well-being. This is according to a 2020 Gallup survey.
