For as long as man could read there has always been some printing going on. Printing can be traced back to the hieroglyphics age where man used to draw on stone to communicate and record memoirs in caves. This type of prints basically involved a paint brush a dye and a surface where one could print. This eventually changed when man started printing their messages on script then this method eventually changed to modern day prints. With the modern day concern about the environment, it has lead to the apprising of digital printing that is eco friendly.

To stick up to the trail manufacturers of paper and paper based products, they are creating products that meet environmental certification; this includes the manufacture of post consumer paper. This is recycled papers. This cuts down the number of trees that have to be harvested in order to make the paper thus saving our forests. This gives the firms product that are environmentally safe.

Post consumer paper is one of the biggest benefits for all parties concerned with the environment this is because for the manufacturers it means cheaper raw materials for the printing firms it means cheaper paper and for the public in general it means a much more cleaner environment since a huge percentage of the litter is composed of paper and without the paper it means a cleaner environment for all.

For many firms in order to meet the demand to be more environmentally friendly, they have turned to using the technology. They have embraced the use of electronic prints like emails instead of letters and the use of televised adverts instead of printed material. This has in turn led to a safer and cleaner environment due to this reduction.

As opposed to predecessor days where all prints had to be printed and aired in dark rooms the current technology allows us to have less bulky printers which use a very little mount of chemical content. This in turn saves the environment a huge drain since the chemicals were not friendly as they helped in wearing away of minerals and a material available.

In the predecessor days, power was a major concern since it involved the use of massive power amounts due to the heavy machinery used to print and the production of power was highly environmentally unfriendly. The introduction of printers that consume less power has been a huge boost to the environment since there is lower power demands from the printers thus lesser damage to this environment.

The amount of ink used in the printing industry cannot be overlooked. This is because it is substantial and ink is basically composed of chemicals. A reduction in the amount of ink used in the print industry and an increase in its quality are among the measures taken to make the sector eco-friendly since it will be of less damage to the environment.

Some of the measures taken by the print industry are very vital for the survival of the eco system in place in order for man to co-exist with nature peacefully.
