How can I dispose of or recycle my personalised prints?

Helloprint is committed to sustainability. Please responsibly dispose of and recycle our products. For paper-based materials, remove metal components before recycling. Check local options for recycling vinyl banners. Paper stickers and labels are recyclable, while plastic or vinyl ones may need special attention. For clothing, donate gently-used items and explore local textile recycling for worn-out pieces. Choose corporate gifts with minimal packaging and recyclable materials. Follow local recycling guidelines for a more environmentally conscious future.
It's crucial to adhere to local recycling guidelines, and we encourage customers to select products with sustainability in mind and follow proper disposal practices, contributing to a more environmentally conscious future.

Do you have any certifications or eco-labels to validate your eco-friendly claims?

While we are actively working towards obtaining certifications and eco-labels to validate our eco-friendly claims across most of our product categories, we are particularly proud to highlight our extensive range of sustainable clothing. This clothing line collaborates with suppliers certified by reputable organisations such as FairWear, GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) for both organic blends and fully organic products, BSI Amfori, Recycled Claim Standard, Oekotex, Made2Flow, and Better Cotton. These certifications underscore our commitment to ensuring ethical and environmentally friendly practices throughout the entire supply chain.

How can I know if a product is eco or sustainable?

To ensure eco-friendliness and sustainability in our customized print products, we prioritize practices that minimize environmental impact, emphasizing reduced use of harmful substances and resource conservation. Our commitment includes using vegetable-based inks, eco-friendly processes, and recycled materials. We go beyond mere eco-friendliness to embrace sustainability, considering long-term impacts on the environment, society, and the economy. We evaluate sustainability holistically, partnering with socially responsible certified suppliers for an ethical supply chain. Additionally, we prioritise highly biodegradable products to reduce long-term environmental impact. Our dedication reflects a commitment to responsible business practices, seeking a harmonious balance between immediate needs and the well-being of future generations.

Are the inks and adhesives that you use for your eco-friendly products also eco-friendly?

Our inks and adhesives for eco-friendly products are consciously chosen to minimise environmental impact. In clothing production, we're shifting to DTF water-based inks, ensuring vibrant prints while reducing Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs). Our eco-friendly stickers offer various sustainable options, including solvent-free toner, biodegradable adhesives, and water-based glue. For paper products, we prioritise inkjet techniques for lower energy consumption and emissions. As part of our ongoing commitment to sustainability, we're actively integrating more water-based inks, reflecting our dedication to cutting-edge, eco-friendly technologies across all printing operations.
