Recycling  

Allegra Marketing, Print & Mail has played a leadership role in starting a recycling program in the local business area. Now that's a bright idea.


A bright idea

Print/Replant



Allegra is proud to announce our environmental plan called "Print>Replant." This is our effort to reduce our environmental impact. It takes one tree to produce a stack of paper five and a half feet tall, and 15 trees to produce a skid of paper. Allegra Print & Imaging of Rolling Meadows uses approximately 2 skids of paper a month. Print/Replant offsets this consumption, by planting a tree for every tree used through the Arbor Day Foundation. Each donation will then go to plant trees in a national forest. That means each month Allegra will contribute to planting 30 new trees in a national forest. We know that is not a huge impact, but even great oaks start as small acorns.

We hope that this idea of Print/Replant will spread to other Allegra Network franchises. If only half of them joined this program we could plant over 72,000 trees each year. That's a much bigger impact. You can get involved too. The Arbor Day Foundation has many programs available to educate people and preserve forests. Also by using Allegra Print & Imaging of Rolling Meadows you are contributing to Print/Replant.
