Print Technology & Sustainability

Economic Vitality • Healthy Communities • Natural Environment

Join Us in the War on Waste

Reducing waste is not only good business practice, it also makes sense for our local environment and our planet. That’s why Westkey Graphics set out in 1994 to adopt sustainability as a way of life. More than twenty years on, we continue to improve the way we manufacture and distribute our print products and services.

In addition to targeted print materials, Westkey Graphics provides design, packaging and display, wide format, labels, and New Media platforms such as App Creation, Augmented Reality, and Virtual Reality. Our resulting unique position in the marketplace creates a compelling responsibility: to build the future of print and sustain it with operations that are lean, intelligent and responsible.

The ‘War on Waste’ Initiative (WOW)

Reducing Waste, Adding Value

Over the years, we have engaged with and participated in numerous environmental and chain-of-custody programs. While these organizations have undoubtedly made meaningful contributions to sustainability, we’ve come to recognize that no single certification truly encompasses the diverse elements required for a fully environmentally conscious solution.

Thus, the Westkey Xibita War on Waste (WOW) was born – a holistic program that bridges the gaps left by existing certifications, ensuring a more comprehensive approach to sustainability.

Quality Control & Customer Focus

Our quality control processes are designed minimize waste and ensure high-quality results. At Westkey Xibita, our Account Managers work closely with Order Entry staff to ensure customer requirements are clearly articulated. We practice quality control at every stage of the production process – from order entry to delivery. As a result, our error rate and frequency of corrective action events are among the lowest in the industry.

We manufacture and distribute from several locations, minimizing turnaround time, freight costs, and our overall transportation footprint.

Our print management program simplifies order entry, budget control, and shipment tracking – lowering administration time and reducing paper waste. Regular business reviews and reports deliver our sustainability results, enabling you to track your print project data.

Give us your sustainability goals and challenges and we’ll tailor a customized print management solution for you that contributes to your bottom line and strengthens your connections to your target audience – internal and external.
