AWT Again Commits to PIM Great Printer Initiative

MINNEAPOLIS, MN – SEPTEMBER 26, 2022 – For the fourteenth straight year, Printing Industry Midwest (PIM) has certified AWT Labels & Packaging under PIM’s ‘Great Printer’ environmental initiative. Participation in the Great Printer initiative is voluntary, and printers must demonstrate their commitment to minimizing impact on human health and the environment while producing quality printed products. Additionally, Great Printer companies commit to going beyond Environmental Health & Safety (EHS) requirements for minimizing waste; recycling waste; maximizing energy efficiency; and creating healthier and safer workplaces.

“AWT is very honored to once again commit to the Great Printer initiative and will continue to operate in accordance with this great program’s guidelines,” said Jay Whiting, Compliance and Safety Specialist at AWT. “This company has always operated in an environmentally responsible manner, and with a ‘safety-first’ mentality when it comes to our employees.  The Great Printer designation validates what we’ve been doing in the normal course of our business, and beyond compliance.”

In addition to AWT’s environmentally friendly operations, the company also offers a line of sustainable label and flexible packaging materials. AWT’s ‘Terrene’ portfolio of materials consists of paper and film stocks with a range of sustainable properties.
