Ultraflex Joins SGP Partnership

The Sustainable Green Printing Partnership (SGP), an authority in sustainable printing certifications, announces that Ultraflex Systems Inc., a maker of digitally printable textiles and flexible-to-rigid substrates, has become part of the SGP community as a gold patron.

According to Ultraflex, its action to become involved in SGP will help to ensure the long-term endurance of sustainable product offerings.

“We believe sustainability is integral to our industry, present, and future,” states Kylie Schleicher, director of product development and product manager at Ultraflex. “We are responsible for taking the required measures to contribute to the sustainable development of digital print materials. Our company’s research and development are the foundation for superior products and performance. We are excited to grow within the community and market new solutions that limit the use of natural resources, reduce waste, and promote the reuse of materials.”

According to SGP, patrons recognize and support its continuing role in advancing the benefits of sustainable practices and certification to both the print and buying communities. SGP patrons are said to be leaders in the industry by promoting a more sustainable future and sustainable supply chain.

“Ultraflex brings its strong commitment to health and safety standards to SGP, a key part of the sustainability mix of people, planet, and profit,” says Marcia Y. Kinter, SGP co-founder. “The innovations Ultraflex brings to outdoor advertising for short-term outdoor applications, where PVC is not permitted, is one of the areas where the company demonstrates their commitment to a more sustainable future. Working with Ultraflex will help SGP certified printers and suppliers to drive sustainability throughout the supply chain.”
