One UK printer's drive to eliminate hazardous waste from the printing process led it to specifying Fujifilm's Brillia HD Pro-T processless plate.

Greenhouse Graphics, in Basingstoke, is running the plates on a Screen Platerite 4300E platesetter That combination is playing a role in Greenhouse Graphics' Ecoprint-System4, which encompasses a series of environmental initiatives that ensures that the company's production is based on environmental sustainability without compromising quality, price or speed, said the company

Ian Crossley, managing and technical director of Greenhouse Graphics, explained: "The environment is right at the top of our agenda.

Finding a reliable, robust processless plate was pivotal in our drive to get rid of hazardous waste from our printing process.

We thoroughly researched the market and following recommendations from our supplier, Apex Digital Graphics and from Heidelberg, we opted for Fujifilm's Pro-T plate." He added: "With our customers becoming increasingly focused on environmental performance, it's important that we can become part of their green supply chain.

By using Prp-T we have eliminated chemicals from our plate making process and increased our efficiency, resulting in better pricing for our customers.

We win, our customers win and, most importantly, the environment wins." Founded in 1993, Greenhouse Graphics runs two presses.

Customers currently include the Green Party, St John Ambulance, the Guardian and The Grasslands Trust.

The Pro-T installation at Greenhouse Graphics was handled by Apex Digital Graphics.
