Environment and sustainability
With a large production, we have a natural responsibility to take care of the environment. We are dependent on the earth's resources, and therefore we want to contribute to a more sustainable world through responsible production that minimizes waste and reduces CO2 emissions.
Our work with sustainability is anchored in two of the UN's global goals, which specifically focus on sustainable energy and **responsible consumption and production ** (goals 7 and 12) . Because we believe more in a few realistic goals than a lot of fine words. In concrete efforts, where the effect is greatest.
As we reach our goals, we set new ones that can step by step reduce our climate footprint and ensure a more sustainable production and future - for us and for the planet.
Our manufacturer is FSC® certified
As an important step towards reducing our climate footprint and ensuring more sustainable production, our partner and manufacturer became FSC certified in 2020.
The FSC certificate is your guarantee that your product is produced under socially, economically and environmentally responsible conditions. This means, among other things, that the product comes from forests where no more trees are cut down than the forests can reproduce. It also means that the product comes from forests where the forest owner receives a fair price for his wood and that the rights of local forest workers are secured.
The certification is backed by the international non-profit organization Forest Steward Council®, which works to ensure sustainable forestry throughout the supply chain. From the tree taking root in the forest to the finished product in the hands of the consumer. As an FSC-certified company, we are committed to ensuring that all these links in our distribution chain meet FSC standards.
As we are committed to following specific procedures, please contact us at kontakt@artbypalaz.dk if you would like to have your order registered as FSC certified on your invoice.
Danish production
At partner, we produce with respect for working conditions, the environment and Danish craftsmanship.
When you shop with us, you help support Danish jobs and Danish growth, while at the same time guaranteeing proper quality and decent working conditions.
By having production and shipping done in-house at our manufacturer, we also reduce our CO2 footprint to a minimum, as we avoid transporting our products over long distances.
Made to order
The world doesn't need more overproduction. That's why we only produce what we sell. This gives you the flexibility to tailor your image, but it also saves the environment precious resources.
As a printing company, we are dependent on the earth's resources. We are aware of this, which is why with our made-to-order production we ensure that we only use exactly what is necessary. Nothing more.
We support the green transition
Our producer has switched 100% of its electricity purchases to renewable and CO2-neutral energy produced by Danish wind power.
They have done this partly to protect the environment and partly to contribute to strengthening production and investment in environmentally friendly energy.

Investing in environmentally friendly UV printing technology
The production uses the latest UV printing technology, delivering maximum results but with a minimal environmental impact. Specifically, we have invested in a Nyala large format printer from swissQprint with certified environmentally friendly ink cartridges.
Greenguard Gold certified ink
Our manufacturer's UV printing has a Greenguard Gold certificate from the world's leading independent safety and certification organization UL Environment.
This means that the print meets some of the world's most critical emission standards for chemistry, and therefore does not emit chemicals and harmful substances such as VOCs (volatile organic compounds). It also means that the print is approved for use in hospitals, schools and other facilities where particularly sensitive individuals may be present.
To achieve Greenguard Gold certification, the UV print has been tested for more than 10,000 chemicals, demonstrating low chemical and particulate emissions when used indoors. It is also tested annually for more than 10,000 VOCs to maintain certification.
