Prismm Environmental and BPIF Labels now offer certification for label printers enrolled in the Zero Labels 2 Landfill scheme. Over 50 sites have successfully joined the scheme, all of which have been issued with individual certificates.

Any printer can benefit from the service, with as a little as 700 kg of label waste being cost effectively collected, ensuring everyone has the opportunity to divert waste and help the industry achieve its environmental goals. The scheme is open to all printers, regardless of BPIF membership.

Certificates are given out annually and will be issued by BPIF labels once it has been confirmed that a site’s waste is being treated according to the scheme’s compliance requirements. The logo can then be used on all business correspondence, such as letter headers, e-mail signatures and business cards.

Jon Hutton, Prismm sales director, said, ‘Prismm Environmental and BPIF labels would like to congratulate all the scheme members for their achievements in not only raising their company’s environmental credibility, but also contributing to that of the industry.’
