Bobst Emphasizes Sustainability, Joins as Gold Patron with SGP Partnership

The Sustainable Green Printing Partnership (SGP), an authority in sustainable printing certifications, has announced that Bobst is now a gold patron. Bobst is driving to achieve a circular economy in flexible packaging, and its partnership with SGP is another step in the goal to empower sustainability.

SGP certification is the only whole-facility certification program developed for the entire printing industry to offer credible sustainability validation by a third party.

“The Bobst approach to empower sustainability efforts internally and externally is two-fold. First, we look for opportunities to design, or re-design, our equipment so that it reduces process waste levels, energy use, or any potential environmental risks that its use might create,” said Emilio Corti, regional market director, Americas. “In parallel with this, Bobst takes a holistic approach to the whole process of manufacturing the equipment our customers buy from us.”

“Bobst demonstrates a commitment to sustainability with its solutions and sponsorship of SGP by supporting the print supply chain in the entire printing lifecycle from manufacture to operation, with circular economy considerations,” comments Doreen Monteleone, SGP treasurer and Flexographic Technical Association representative.temp
