14/11/09  -  Enviro Digital Printing keeps R4 Fashion responsible

Enviro Digital Printing is a proud supporter of R4 Fashion in all of its printing materials. Whether it be a banner, a brochure, or invitation card, ED Printing solutions help reduce our carbon footprint by using recycled or FSC papers, and natural based inks. 

R4 Fashion will reduce all printing requirements; no tickets are issued, program is screened on screen, and   or passes. The whole logistics is based on a guest list and continious updating system to keep track of guests and volunteers.

Thank you ED Printing for your support of the Sustainable Technology Education Project on this great, green, event!
