Green Statement

Being environmentally-conscious is part of our vision at Southwest Direct®.

We aim to reduce our energy consumption, pollution and waste, as well as the overall carbon footprint of every printing, packaging, and mailing job that passes through our facility. We know that printing green not only saves precious resources but also saves time, which in the end saves you and your organization money.

And, we are committed to our clients who are also environmentally conscious as well by providing our clients many ways to ensure the future of our planet.

Recycled Paper

Southwest Direct offers its clients a full line of environmentally responsible paper ranging from 10% to 100% recycled and with an array of affordable pricing options. Recycled paper is not only eco-friendly, renewable and lighter, but it is also high quality paper that can be used with any print project – even with a digital printer.

Soy-based Inks

SouthWest Direct is proud to exclusively use soy-base inks. Soy-based inks reduce volatile organic compounds released during production, and the materials used to make soy-based ink are agricultural- based and completely renewable. In addition, soy-based inks are more vibrant, producing a beautiful and eco-friendly piece.

List Hygiene

Every year, more than a billion pieces of mail are sent that never make it to the intended recipient. By ensuring that your mailing lists are constantly updated and void of duplicate records, we are eliminating unwanted and undeliverable mail. Not only does this improve your response rate, but it also cuts down on paper waste and gas emissions used in failed delivery attempts. A clean list is eco-friendly, efficient, and effective.
