To Nurseries and Non-profits

Direct ecology: We help schools, sports and non-profit organisations with what we do best – paper

At our printing house, we believe that ecology begins where material is fully utilised. And because paper is our primary working material, we look for ways to give it the longest possible life. Instead of simply throwing away unused sheets or offcuts, we offer them to those who will genuinely use them: schools, nurseries, sports clubs and non-profit organisations. We call this principle direct ecology – an ecological approach that doesn't rely on sorting only at the end, but on meaningful use of material right now.

Three types of paper that can continue to serve

1. Larger offcuts from production

These pieces arise when trimming printed materials. They're clean, quality and often ideal for:

• drawing and painting,

• crafts and art projects,

• note cards,

• worksheets for children.

Thanks to their dimensions, they're mainly used by nurseries, schools and creative workshops.

2. Older sheets no longer suitable for printing

Sometimes sheets remain in stock that no longer meet our strict printing requirements (e.g. older batches, inconsistent surface structure, etc.). However, they're perfect for educational or office use.

Organisations use them for example for:

• workbooks,

• sketch sheets,

• large-format drawing,

• production of decorations and exhibition panels.

3. Sample sheets with single-sided printing

As part of quality control, we occasionally print test sheets that have printing on one side only. However, the other side is completely clean – and fully usable.

These sheets are excellent for:

• printing internal documents,

• work “tablecloth” under drawings

• training in graphic or art techniques,

• various school projects.

Who we help

Schools and nurseries

They receive material for crafts, teaching and leisure activities without needing to buy new paper. For many schools, this is a significant saving.

Sports clubs

They often use paper for:

• organisational documents,

• competition records,

• children's events and camps,

• creation of signs, direction markers or noticeboards.

Non-profit organisations

This enables them to save their budget and use paper for example for:

• workshops and community projects,

• training materials,

• administration,

• creative therapies and programmes.

Why we call it “direct ecology”

Unlike conventional recycling, which only comes at the moment when paper ends up in a container, direct ecology works with immediate, full-value utilisation. The material isn't destroyed, but continues to serve - with minimal energy footprint.

Thanks to this approach:

• we extend the life of paper,

• we reduce the amount of waste,

• we support the local community,

• we help organisations that make the world a better place.

And what truly cannot be used further, we properly recycle.
