UNISOURCE PRINTING IN MACOMB MICHIGAN IS THINKING GREEN
Did you know that according to the American Forest & Paper Association, 57.4 percent of the paper consumed in the U.S. was recovered for recycling in 2008? In fact, if measured by weight, more paper is recovered for recycling from solid waste streams than all glass, plastic and alumimum combined. Every ton of paper recovered for recycling saves 3.3 cubic yards of landfill space.
The printing industry takes very seriously the effect we have on the environment. That is why over the years improvements have been made to make recycling paper cost – effective. Recycled paper is now the same price as “virgin” paper in most cases and the quality between the virgin and recycled paper is nearly impossible to detect. Each time paper is recycled, the fiber length decreases, which impacts its strength. Paper can be regenerated approximately seven times and still be within standard strength. To help extend the life of paper, most paper mills introduce “virgin” fiber into the process. The recycled content is usually 10 to 30 percent of the paper. Thanks to the responsible forestry practices of U.S. companies, the U.S. forests have increased by nearly 40 percent over the past half-century. Unisource Printing Services and Promotions works to be a more green company by purchasing recycled stocks for all its printing projects. If you would like more information on this subject please contact us. Looking forward to working with you. Respectfully,Carol Harrison Ken Harrison

Every industry has been hit with Supply Chain issues, the printing industry is no exception. The most important commodity for printers is the paper materials. The mills have been down in production due to labor shortages for over 2 years. The paper mills have been informing us that this will not change for the rest of 2022. The national demand for printed products has gone way up since we have all been back to business as somewhat normal. The supply of paper materials is at an all time low. Some materials are 2-3 months out especially in the medical lab forms industry which have barcode applied or integrated labels . This supply issue is unheard of in the print industry, never before have we as a whole had problems with buying paper inventory . Mills have all printers on allocations so this has been a real challenge.
Rush deliveries are not available due to supplies and even on time deliveries can be a challenge. Companies are asking their customers to order early. You can do a few things to keep your supplies from running out.
Lets all work together to keep you in stock with your forms and supplies. Unisource Printing and Promotions is ready to help you navigate your printing and promotional needs.
Your company brand is very important. By definition “A brand is the set of expectations, memories, stories and relationships that, taken together, account for a client’s decision to choose one provider over another. Your brand’s value is merely the sum total of how much extra people will pay, or how often they choose the expectations, memories, stories and relationships of one brand over another.”
So how do you build that brand? Here are some suggestions that are tried and true:

Lamination is the bonding of a thin, transparent layer of film to the surface of a printed sheet. It can be applied to presentation folders, menus, loyalty cards, postcards, business cards, and packaging. Lamination creates a richer look and feel than just paper alone. Colors appear more brilliant and also add protection against scuffs, tears and spills.
UV and Aqueous coatings can be applied as full flood or spot application. This is great on flyers, brochures or catalogs when you need pictures or graphics to standout on a printed piece. You can also use UV or Aqueous coatings on Presentation folders, business cards and packaging as well.

You can spend thousands of dollars on marketing materials and brochures, but the first thing a customer or strategic partner will see is your business card. It makes sense to combine your efforts to create a brand. Make sure you include your business card. The business card is essential to building your business. You will hand them out at meeting, trade shows, conventions, send with presentations and of course networking events. If your business card is not professionally designed, hard to read, or missing important information your opportunity to create a customer can be lost at hello. Designing a business card can seem expensive. Have you consider the cost of a missed opportunity? A poorly designed business card can give the wrong impression of who you are and what your company can do for them.
