MOO cards go green

April 8th, 2010 BY dalgal | No Comments

Business cards are a great way for any company to get noticed, networking and handing out cards promotes companies, businesses or even blogs. However all that paper and printing doesn’t make them very eco-friendly unless you go green with MOO’s business cards printed on recycled cardstock.

MOO is a printing company, launched in London but now operating from Europe and the USA. MOO prints products such as: mini cards; business cards; sticker books; postcards; greeting cards; accessories; gift certificates and holiday cards. Nineteen months ago MOO launched it’s Green business cards offering printables on recycled cardstock, since then they’ve continued with further investigation into testing eco-friendly papers and now have a new recycled paper for eco-conscious consumers. MOO believes that the recycled paper they print not only make images look amazing but should also be eco-friendly!

At 352gsm / 15.5pt this new, smooth white, non-laminated stock is one of the heaviest eco stocks guaranteed for our unique Printfinity presses.

The treatment applied to the stock allows you to print crisp photography or illustration with a fantastic tonal range and vivid colors. We’ve never thought that recycled stock should equal a compromise in quality, and I’m excited to say that with this paper, the difference between the Eco stock and the MOO Classic really is just the finish.

Made from 100% Post Consumer Waste and FSC certified, the eco credentials for this are even more amazing than our previous paper. It’s made with electricity generated by renewable, non polluting wind power from Green-e. (Green-e is the nation’s leading independent certification and verification program for renewable energy products, they ensure strict environmental and consumer protection standards.) Process chlorine and acid free, the paper has been manufactured in compliance with the standards set for alkaline papers by the American National Standards Institute.

The MOO business cards are slightly more expensive than the traditional paper but they believe the eco-friendly aspects outweigh the cost.

50 cards – $24.99
200 cards – $79.99
