Printing Industries Association of Australia and Zero Waste SA
Print partnership targets industry-wide sustainability
The alliance of the Printing Industries Association of Australia (PIAA) with Zero Waste SA is an extension of the Resource Efficiency Assistance Program (REAP) to reach more organisations quickly and efficiently through their industry peak bodies.
REAP has been established by Zero Waste SA to provide advice and support for companies to achieve sustainability goals.
"There's a negative perception about print because we use paper. Even though most printers now source from plantation timber, the perception has stuck. "REAP is helping us overcome that by reinforcing the green message among members and transferring knowledge about resource efficiency and good waste management." says State PIAA General Manager Peter Mansfield.
