Environmental Responsibility

SGM Bindery, Inc. is committed to protecting the environment and controlling the usage of resources
in manufacturing and related activities through continuous improvement of environmental protection.

Reduce We have reduced our greenhouse gas emissions by re-lamping our lighting in our plant. 

This will help reduce lighting energy by as much as 50%.

We are in the process of re-lamping all of our halogen lamps and incandescent lamps with low energy consumption fluorescents.
