Renner Print Media | Sustainability

Consistently sustainable

In order to limit global warming, climate protection is becoming an increasingly important issue for all of us. Besides the effects of climate change, legal requirements and possibly tax levies will soon affect everyone and influence business decisions.

Through a wide range of measures and investments, such as in photovoltaics, we have been able to reduce emissions to a great extent. In addition, with Circular PP we have developed a material with an 80% reduction in CO2 emissions.

Save what can be saved. Compensate for the unavoidable.

We reduce a high level of emissions through an efficient upcycling process and a wide range of measures and investments.

Communicate climate neutrality.

If you speak openly about climate protection measures, you enhance your own brand as a responsible one. The international symbol for PP recycled material is displayed on the plant labels made of circular PP and can therefore be credibly labeled as sustainable and recyclable (see image).

The use of the label is available to our customers at no additional cost.

Sustainable Production.

Measures at several levels.

Green electricity with own photovoltaic system

Our new photovoltaic system has covered every square metre of our roof area with PV modules. For this, the hall construction had to be reinforced and strong investments had to be made. But now we have our own little power plant right on our roof. This will produce a large part of the electricity we need.

Reduced colour- and varnish consumption

We use advanced colour management technology to achieve significant ink volumes while improving print quality. New varnish form rollers with a special surface enable a reduction in the amount of varnish of over 30 %. In addition, we recommend that our customers do not use varnish at all for suitable products.

Single-variety
Production

Polypropylene (PP) is the best material for plant labelling. It has one of the lowest CO2 footprints. It is water-resistant, tear-proof, durable and, unlike many other types of plastic, environmentally neutral. PP does not release any harmful substances into the environment. For this reason, we prefer to produce on PP.

Reduction
of wastepaper

Printing production generates "waste paper". These are sheets of paper or plastic that are needed to set up the machines and are then sent for recycling. Through colour management, printing press technology and improvements in prepress processes, we have been able to reduce the amount of waste by many tonnes per year.

Renner bees.

We support beekeepers
and their bees

Already in kindergarten we learn about the importance of the bee for flourishing landscapes, the preservation of our food diversity and pollination in agriculture. For Renner Print+Media, bee protection starts with beekeepers. They know what bees need. We must therefore show them that their work is important! Beekeeping is expensive and involves high initial investments. That is why we support the care of currently 15 bee colonies. Our own bee truck is located near our company building on the edge of one of the largest forest areas in Central Europe, the Kobernaußerwald.

Sarahs success with the bee colony

In an idyllic place at the edge of the forest, one could say in the middle of nowhere, stands an old train carriage. The grinding on the tracks is long gone, the wagon is now surrounded by the buzzing of bees. A beautiful flower meadow and many bee plants in the lovingly tended garden court the bees' favour. With a combination of caring, conscientiousness and ingenuity, Sarah looks after the Renner Print Media bee colonies. Even the much-feared Varroa mite seems to find no place in this magical place. Thanks to a self-developed, ecologically compatible method, the bee whisperer succeeds in keeping the bee colonies in the best of health.

Our Mission

All life on our planet depends on the presence of our green fellow beings. As printers, designers, photographers and gardeners we combine our skills to inspire for plants. This brings nature and humans together to a certain extent.

Our roots lie in the art of printing, invented by Johann Gutenberg. The soil on which we grow is the gardening industry. We owe our growth to our committed employees. The fruit are enthusiastic customers.

This company exists because hardly any advertising company shares this enthusiasm for plants. It is the combination of gardener, printer, designer, photographer.
