In today’s climate of environmental concerns, many consumers are trying to find more ways to be environmentally friendly. Here at Worldwide Ticketcraft we have concerns about our impact on the environment. To address these concerns we have started a green initiative to reduce consumption and waste, increase our recycling, and use more environmentally friendly products.

Currently

• Recycle all our paper, aluminum, and plastic products.
• Placed recycle bins throughout our building to collect any paper waste.
• Use water based inks to print our tickets.
• Recycle any unused or left over inks.
• Distill and reuse any left over chemicals.
• Have corrugated boxes for shipping products that contain 10% Total Recovered
Fiber and All Post-Consumer Fiber.
• Use Wausau Paper ™ which is certified to contain 30% recycled postconsumer fiber and meet federal procurement guidelines.
• Recycle and reuse bubble wrap that is left over from shipments.

Expectations

• We are currently in the process of ordering paper for our thermal tickets that contain 10% post-consumer waste, which will be offered to our customers.
• In the process of testing with soy protein for inks.
• In the process of being compliant with one of many Chain of Custody (CoC) Certification plans such as FSC, (Forestry Stewardship Council) and the SFI, (Sustainable Forestry Initiative)
