Kodak has launched a sustainable support program for its printing and publishing customers in the UK with its preferred partner in this sector - J&G Environmental.

The move comes on the back of the launch of Kodak’s Sustainable Printer Program (SPP). Kodak will now recommend J&G Environmental to all its existing and potential KODAK NEXPRESS Digital Production Colour Press customers for the management of all consumable waste and all Operator Replaceable Components (ORCs) which will be collected, segregated and returned to a Kodak factory for refurbishment and reuse and providing they return their ORCs to J&G, there will be no costs.

J&G Environmental is Kodak’s chosen specialist partner and the first part of the SPP in the UK will operate in Manchester and Blandford, managing flexographic, graphic, and lithographic, newspaper, web-offset and screen printing wastes. J&G will manage all KODAK NEXPRESS Press' ORCs plus some selected recyclable wastes such as plastic toner bottles and aluminium plates. The program will give Kodak customers assurance that all legal requirements are met, but also that waste hierarchy is applied.
