SGP Certifies Smyth Companies

The Sustainable Green Printing Partnership (SGP; Sayville, NY) announced today that Smyth Companies (Bedford, VA) has been certified as an SGP printer. This is Smyth Companies’ first location to become an SGP certified printer. 

Smyth received its first sustainability certification in 2009 and looks forward to using practices outlined by SGP for making socially responsible decisions which positively impact the environment, providing its customers with sustainable supply chain options, and safeguarding the health and safety of its employees. 

“Being good stewards of our resources is good for business, but more importantly it is boundless for the environment, our customers, employees and our communities. Our philosophy is to leave our surroundings in a better place than we found them,” said Scott Fisher, president. “We look forward to enhancing sustainability as part of our continuous improvement plan and adopting the mandatory best practices SGP has developed for the printing industry.”
