After these discussions, a "marketplace" event gave print shops the opportunity to present their approaches and solutions in the fields of sustainability and environmental protection. There was great interest in the CO2 calculator from the bvdm (German Association of Print and Media), which numbers Heidelberg among its official cooperation partners.
Heidelberg made environmental protection a corporate objective back in 1992. The company’s many different activities in this sector have recently been given their own dedicated pages on the Heidelberg website at
www.heidelberg.com/eco. The information provided includes the corporate guidelines on environmental policy, comprehensive data on sites' environmental performance, and a list of materials that suppliers are not allowed to use. Numerous Heidelberg publications on sustainability issues can also be downloaded there.
