Corporate Social Responsibility
Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is playing an increasingly important role in the strategic and day to day culture and management at Norcross Printing Group in New Zealand.

Norcross Printing Group’s Role
As one of New Zealand’s leading Full Service Print Management Companies, Norcross Printing Group is in a leadership position to take an active role in supporting and educating consumers and business in the value of CSR and wider sustainable business practice.

Building on Success
The journey Norcross Printing Group has taken has already driven positive changes that have led to major successes. These have been recognised in the recent achievement of being awarded “Gold Status” in the Enviro-Mark®NZ awards. Norcross Printing Group joins a select 20 companies who achieve this distinction each year.

Paper
Papers environmental impact can be reduced through the use of papers with a high post-consumer recycled content produced with Totally Chlorine Free (TCF) or Elemental Chlorine Free (ECF) processes. While these papers sometimes cost a little more, Norcross Printing Group can assist in selecting the correct grade for matching conventional paper performance.

Paper wastage can be minimised by selecting the best finished size and imposition for the job. Often a designer will not take into account the amount of paper wasted by choosing a certain finished size or supplying a certain imposition. Norcross Printing Group has full in-house design and pre-press facilities that are able to configure or reconfigure material to reduce paper wastage.

Packaging
Norcross Printing Group is able to package finished goods in recycled plastics or recycled paper/cartons. Your organisation’s ability to recycle either packaging material can be determined prior to supplying finished goods and recommendations regarding recycling form part of the Greenprint™ Specifications.
