Making sustainable print
the obvious choice.
We verify every supplier's eco credentials independently, match your brief automatically, and handle the commercial relationship.
The UK print industry produces millions of jobs every year.
Most of them could be produced more sustainably — but finding the right supplier takes research, trust and time most buyers don't have. Supplier eco claims are often unverified. Certifications are self-declared. And the print buyer has no easy way to tell the difference.
printing.uk exists to remove that friction. We verify every supplier's eco credentials independently — against FSC, PEFC and ISO registries — before they join our network. We then match your brief to the right supplier automatically, based on capability, region and credentials.
Eco printing vs standard printing
The difference between a verified eco supplier and an unverified one isn't visible on the finished product. Here's what's actually different — and why it matters for your business, your clients and the environment.
How we verify every supplier
We don't accept self-declared eco claims. Every credential is checked against its certification body before a supplier joins our network.
Application
Suppliers complete a detailed application listing their credentials, capabilities, regions served and product types.
Credential check
We verify each certification number directly with FSC, PEFC and ISO registries. Self-declared claims are not accepted.
Capability review
We assess the supplier's product range and equipment to ensure they can fulfil the briefs we'll match to them.
Annual re-verification
Certifications are time-limited. We re-verify credentials annually and remove suppliers whose certifications lapse or are not renewed.
