About Us
Everything starts small. Any fool knows some things are better than others. That's where we come in.
“We stand in solidarity with everyone who loves our home and cares for it's future”
— Rob Tossberg, CEO —
OUR STORY
Rob Tossberg founded Plan it Green Printing in 2003. His daughter was born right after 9/11, followed by his son. That strengthened his motivation to find an answer to the question: How do I want to leave this planet for my children and future generations? Paper products and labeling products were not going to go away. But he could offer companies sustainable alternatives.
“I am proud to be educating my customers and offering more and more innovative, sustainable products.”
All jobs are printed in the USA - California and the Midwest.
CoejlSC GREEN SEAL RECIPIENT
Plan It Green Printing is the proud CoejlSC Green Seal Recipient for Businesses Leading the Way in Environmental Practices. Beginning in 2005, the Coalition on the Environment for Jewish People Living in Southern California began a tradition of awarding businesses leading in environmental business practices – businesses with a Higher Moral Standard for Businesses. Along with a Used Cardboard and Dry-Cleaning Company, we were the first to be awarded the Green Seal by City of Los Angeles Assembly Member Lloyd Levine and Faith2Green’s Lee Wallach.
FOR THE PLANET
PLAN IT GREEN PRINTING has promoted the use of alternative paper stocks since 2003. We are committed to the conservation of the world’s ancient and endangered forest ecosystems. As part of that commitment, we strongly support the North American commercial scale development of pulp, paper and packaging alternatives that are derived from agricultural residues like wheat straw as a way to diversify the fiber basket and meet our continued need for high quality, cost effective products.
We also support a National cohesive policy for handling industrial compost and recycling.
CARBON FOOTPRINT
We constantly seek to improve our product line. This is why we stopped selling Rock Paper, Stone Paper and Fiberstone in 2010 and other stocks imported from South America and Europe. We try to keep our carbon footprint to a minimum. Our clients come to us, because we sell eco-friendly products, stocks made in the US, made from and with renewable resources. Everyday, we try to convince new clients to give up plastic labels.
TRANSPARENCY
We only work with vendors who provide proof of production. We want to know where and how the product is made and who worked on them and under what condition.
Smart organizations understand printing responsibilities which can enhance brand image in significant ways. Consumers prefer to buy green when given a choice. Today, the multitude of sustainable paper stocks, printing methods, and certification bodies require an education in and of itself. Offset vs. Digital. Inks vs. Toner. BPI Compostability vs. European Certification. Recycled vs. Compostable. Sustainability, Chain-of-custody and End-of-Life questions.
Because of Plan It Green Printing’s unique level of expertise with earth-friendly printing methods and materials, companies turn to us to assist them in navigating this new landscape.
