Environment

When designing new products, Xeikon takes key environmental issues into account.

The digital principle. Follow our lead and ‘print only what you need, reprint when needed’ reducing waste through minimal production, downsizing storage space and thus decreasing costs.
Eco-objectives. Reducing the recycling cost of Xeikon products and solutions, meeting environment related product standards and customer requirements and minimizing the environmental impact during product life cycle are Xeikon’s eco-goals.
Design strategies. Xeikon aims to attain its eco-objectives through raw material substitution or reduction, process efficiency improvement and energy usage, as well as life cycle and product disposal optimization.
Xeikon digital press versus offset. Digital printing guarantees a significant reduction in raw materials as well as energy and water savings. What’s more, this printing process doesn’t cause water pollution and enables easy paper recycling thanks to its ‘good deinkable’ grade.
Eco-friendly approach widely recognized. Xeikon was granted the Belgian Environmental Award for sustainable product development in 2003-2004 and honoured for its specifically designed and reusable packaging in 2007.
