For those who like myself hold recycling dear to the heart I have proof that one form works.
Not one cherry eaten by birds!!!

I thought it was worth letting our customers know that at Duplication Centre we also specialise in Waterproof Print.

We are proud to say that we have just completed an order for the Royal Society For the Protection of Birds.
As part of our ongoing search to find worthwhile causes to recycle our discs we are collecting over-runs or “spoilt” discs to send to Holborough Lakes Special Resource Provision at Valley Invicta Primary School; working with children who have Social, Emotional and Mental Health Needs.

The discs are going to be used for projects in their sensory garden and we look forward to sharing pictures of this when it is complete.
We are always trying our best to recycle within our industry and constantly look for new ways, however small to improve.
We are especially pleased when we can promote recycling through the work we have done for a customer….especially one who has been with us for years!

We are delighted to still be bringing to our customers such high quality CD’s , DVD’s & Blu-Ray.
If you’ve been considering putting your music onto disc, come to us for help and advice for the best results for you.
Although our most popular products are the eco-friendly card products we still do the full range of traditional plastic cases, and where we can we buy eco-friendly or recyclable plastic.
Give us a call if you need any help with your order; we have both technical and administrative staff to guide you through.
We are always on the look out for ways to recycle CD’s & DVD’s because no matter how hard we try we do get discs that are unusable; they sometimes get spoilt in the print process or rejected from the burners if there is an error.
With Christmas on the horizon I saw a great way to make some unique decorations.
Get a polystyrene ball, the kind you can buy in craft shops.
Cut up a CD or DVD irregular or regular shaped pieces, and glue them onto to polystyrene…bit like a disco ball :)…add a ribbon or string for hanging it!
Every now and then we have art submitted for orders that really catches our eye!
Take a look at these card wallets:
Use our free artwork creator tool and the card wallet template in our artwork section to create your card wallet.
At Duplication Centre we are sending out an increasing amount of sustainable card products which minimises the necessity for using a massive amount of plastic bubblewrap.
We do however still send lots of plastic and potentially breakable products and the reality is however much fragile tape you put on a parcel, they can sometimes get some rough treatment by the couriers!!!
Our priority is to get orders to customers in the perfect condition that they leave us, so good packing is important.
All this said we still try to reuse and recycle as much as we can :
*Boxes from incoming products are reused to double box giving amazing transit protection.
*Sourcing card boxes from other local businesses that would other wise be discarded.
*Reuse of mailite or bubble bags for outgoing samples and proofs.
It can be time consuming to recycle but we think it’s worth it .
Always trying to take responsibility for our own foot print.
