ISO 12647
Customers are making increasingly high demands on the quality, predictability and turnaround time of their packaging printing. The use of ISO 12647 offers an excellent guarantee for this. In the ISO 12647 standard, agreements have been made at European level to, among other things, guarantee the quality of the color spectrum, achieve optimization and facilitate European cooperation within graphic media companies. In other words: delivering the same quality printed matter, which may have been produced by different printing companies. ISO 12647-2 is the standard for offset printing companies. With an ISO 12647 certificate, your clients know that they can confidently place their packaging printing with you.
Our approach
An environmental management system in accordance with ISO 14001 enables entrepreneurs to deal with sustainability in a structured and predictable way. This approach will lead to cost control by dealing more efficiently with raw and auxiliary materials. In addition, the waste stream is reduced to a minimum (cost-saving) and company waste materials are seen much more as new raw materials.
