Starleaton Digital Solutions has signed an exclusive agreement to distribute media manufacturer conVerd LLC’s Enviroboard MR in Australia. Starleton says Enviroboard MR enables customers to make a significant difference in ‘greening’ their signage and display offerings.
Voted ‘Greenest Product of the Show’ at the recent ISA Sign Expo in Orlando, Florida, Enviroboard MR was also used for all the informational and educational panels around the show's halls.
Stocks in 1220mm x 2260mm and 1125mm x 3050mm are already available with more containers in transit to meet demand. Starleaton says it will also introduce other conVerd LLC green print media going forward, such as Blox-Lite opaque banner, Wallpaper, and Greenlight front/backlit papers.
Al Ammerman, vice-president of sustainability at conVerd LLC says, “Starleaton Digital Solutions is the green partner we have been looking for to promote and distribute our FSC product offerings. ConVerd is extremely pleased to have Starleaton as our exclusive distributor in Australia and New Zealand.”
Also commenting, Ben Eaton, director of Starleaton says, “Enviroboard MR is manufactured from 10 per cent post-consumer waste and 90 per cent FSC-certified sustainable fibre. Because it is 100 per cent paper and uses water-based adhesive, it can then be recycled in normal processes after use, rather than incinerated which is the case with most foam-based boards.”
He continues, “Best of all, it prints beautifully because it has ultra-smooth brilliant white surfaces rated at 97 per cent of light reflectance.”
According to Starleaton, Enviroboard MR possesses outstanding flatness, flexural rigidity and edge-crush capabilities. The company continues that the corrugated core features bright white paperboard laminated to both sides, for printing using UV Flatbed, digital inkjet and UV Screen applications.
Ben Eaton concludes, “It ticks all of the boxes in what a truly sustainable product should be. Supermarkets, exhibitions, showrooms, stores and malls will be able to proudly claim that their signage is from sustainable resources, and will be responsibly recycled once disposed of.”
