Imprimerie Centrale ensures the application of the Imprim’Vert specifications within its company:

the sorting and recycling of paper waste receive particular attention. Cardboard, paper scraps, and cutting waste are sorted and recycled by a company via a skip rotation system

hazardous products are stored on retention trays to prevent any spills and soil pollution, and are then disposed of by a specialized company

Imprimerie Centrale uses fabric wipes to clean surfaces soiled by ink and oil in machines. These cloths are reusable once washed, a more ecological alternative to disposable wipes

the sales team guides clients towards eco-design projects and encourages them in the choice of ecological papers
