Sustainability – Minimising our Impact

We craft prints made to last a lifetime, not to be thrown away, using Cotton Rag paper made from repurposed cotton linters and cloth offcuts that would otherwise go to landfill. We print using chemical-free, water-based pigment Epson printers for richer, longer-lasting colour without heavy metals. Our specially designed packaging is made in-house from recyclable, non-bleached materials, cutting waste and transport damage along the way.

PosterFactory Print+Frame Classic
