doodad's environmental approach
INK FROM RENEWABLE RESOURCES
doodad uses renewable substances such as soybean oil and other environmentally renewable resources. Our ink supplier, Hostmann-Steinberg, recognizes the importance of sustainable development in today’s industry and manufactures products with organic pigments chosen for their low level of contaminants.
RECYCLING
We recycle 100% of our waste paper. This amounts to 4.5 million pounds per year of paper, most of which is converted by paper mills back into various types of paper for re-use. We also collect and recycle 100% of our paper cores and brown paper wraps from incoming paper rolls, as well as 100% (54,000 pounds) of aluminium printing plates.
AIR QUALITY
We use regenerative thermal oxidization (RTO) to control the emissions of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs). This technology uses heat, partially reclaimed from the printing process, to destroy over 99% of VOCs before they are released to the atmosphere.
PRESSROOM CHEMICALS
We review all pressroom chemicals to ensure we are using the most environmentally friendly versions that we can find. For instance, we use low VOC varieties of blanket wash and fountain solution and our metering roller cleaner (MRC) has 50% less acetone.
WASTE REDUCTION
We are committed to maximizing the yield that we derive from all resources. By reducing paper waste and manufacturing by-products such as VOC’s and using chemicals with lower levels of non-sustainable additives, we mitigate the negative impact that we might otherwise have on the environment. Accordingly, we emphasize continuous improvement in all programs designed to reduce our environmental footprint. Our paper waste program, as just one example, has reduced waste levels by more than 30% since 2007.
Week after week, Doodad meets or exceeds our turnaround expectations. We rely on them for this reason. There is rarely a surprise or a mistake. When there is, they fix it with no questions asked. They even anticipate potential problems and prepare for the worst case scenario in order to meet our deadlines. I've been a client of Doodad for nearly 30 years and they have never been better. The supply chain issues during the pandemic allowed our company, mostly because of the forward thinking of Doodad, to secure increased market share. On top of that, Doodad knows that we are sometimes presented with opportunities to secure last minute business. They trust my intuition when I tell them it can make a difference in not only securing an order, but long-term business from an "on the fence" client if we can rush it.
ValuDirect has had the privilege to work with Debra Wood and the entire doodad team for all our printing needs for almost 20 years. It has been a very important and gratifying business relationship in the growth of our company throughout our working together. Nobody comes close to the quality, customer service and pricing than them. We have never considered doodad a vendor, they are clearly an amazing Business Partner.
Having worked with Doodad Printing for over 20 years, I am more than happy to give them a glowing letter of recommendation. No one comes close to their excellent quality, customer service and value. Over the years Doodad has been very helpful in lowering costs and increasing quality for my customers. Their excellent customer service has helped develop additional revenue sources for LanDan throughout the years. I cannot say enough good things about working with Doodad.
