Eco-Printing at Dunn School: Embracing 100% Recycled Paper

At the Dunn School the laboratories can procure 100% recycled printer paper at Dunn School Stores, supplied by Lyreco.

The use of recycled paper reflects the Dunn School’s commitment to reducing environmental impact, supporting forest conservation, and lowering the carbon footprint associated with paper production.

In addition to using recycled paper, the department actively encourages digital alternatives and mindful printing practices. 

​

Think Before Printing: Evaluate the necessity of a hard copy versus a digital one.

Double-Up: When printing is indispensable, go double-sided to halve paper consumption.

Eco-Disposal: Our department is dotted with recycling hubs, ensuring paper and cardboard get repurposed, diverting them from landfills.

​

Paper and cardboard recycling facilities are available throughout the department to ensure materials are appropriately recycled and diverted from landfill. While the transition to recycled paper is an important step, the broader aim remains to minimise overall paper use through sustainable working practices and increased use of digital systems.
