J&G Environmental is stepping up its efforts to support more ethical print service providers in the fight against plastic pollution.
The print waste management company has acquired two new pieces of kit to help service providers dispose of their plastic waste responsibly. An Avery Weigh-Tronix ZM510 weigh-bridge for logging weights of different materials, and a Rapid 8045 granulator for preparing waste plastic ready to be made into new products have both been installed at its site in Dorset.
‘When printers are putting contracts together to get new work, more often than not, they need to prove they are using a responsible waste management company and are recycling as much of their waste as they can,’ explained recycling manager Jason Goddard. ‘A printer has a duty of care to know what is happening with their waste. We are able to offer full traceability to show what is happening with it, ensuring it does not end up in the ocean.’
