Anox The Label Sustainability Actions

Environmental program in place

The company says it has built an environmental program to reduce its impact. The program focuses on new technology, cutting harmful chemicals, improving energy efficiency, and reducing waste where possible. It also says the team looks for ways to streamline manufacturing and use more recyclable and reusable materials. This is a general operating approach, not a single project, and it shows the business is trying to lower its day-to-day footprint across production.

Zero waste-to-landfill facility

The Syracuse facility is described as a zero waste-to-landfill site, which means it aims to keep waste out of landfill by recycling, reusing, or sending leftovers to other uses. The page says it recycles plate material, computer equipment, metal parts, lights, wood pallets, and batteries. Items that cannot be recycled are used in solid fuel blending or for alternative power generation. This is a practical waste-reduction step tied to factory operations.

Lower material and energy use

The company says digital printing has helped reduce waste from plates, substrate, inks, and other printing supplies. It also says electricity and natural gas use have gone down. In plain terms, this means the business is trying to make production less resource-heavy by using more efficient equipment and processes. It also offers materials with post-consumer waste content, which means material recovered from products people have already thrown away.

Sustainable label materials

The company says it offers paper products approved by the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC, a group that sets standards for responsible forest use), recycle-friendly labels and shrink sleeves for PET bottles and containers, and pressure-sensitive labels that can be recycled with HDPE plastic. It also says thin-gauge liners allow more labels per roll, which can reduce freight, packaging waste, and handling. These are product-level changes meant to make packaging and labels easier to reuse or recycle.

Recognized sustainability awards

The Syracuse label facility says it has received an SGP certification, an EcoVadis Bronze medal, and the 2022 Calvin Frost Champions of Change Sustainability Award. SGP stands for Sustainable Green Printing, a program for printing companies that meet environmental and social standards. EcoVadis is a third-party rating system that scores company sustainability practices. These recognitions suggest the site has been reviewed by outside bodies, not just by the company itself.
