"I appreciate working with you and your staff.  You have all been so very good to me in printing my books with the Mercer County Historical Society.  The Messenger Press has printed our books since 1987, over two decades.  I am always proud of the final product.  Honestly, you make the books "look good" for the preservation of Mercer County's rich heritage for future generations."

If someone offered you the option of watching your favorite movie in HD instead of that old TV you've been thinking of replacing, which would you choose?  You would choose HD, right?

We're really excited to share our implementation of the new Habitat Ink System for all of our offset printing.  Habitat offers more vibrant, consistent color produced by smaller, sharper dots.  Thus, the comparison to HD TV.  And on top of improved print quality, Habitat is:

     - the most consistent ink on the market
     - created for the safest, cleanest standards in the world
             no fillers
             no hazardous chemicals
             VOCs of less than 4%
     - requires no additional heat or energy to cure
     - made in the US with US based renewable resources
     - goes further than conventional ink products
     - produced with the highest renewable resource content on the market

What does all that mean?  

     A healthier, safer work environment for our employees.  If you've ever been to a printing facility, you know what I'm referring to when I say printing chemistry gives off a substantial odor (similar to the smell of paint).  Our use of Habitat means VOCs of less than 4%, which translates into a noticeable reduction in that odor.  It's been a long time coming and if you know a printer you can appreciate what this means.

     A reduction in our carbon footprint.  Unlike, traditional printing ink and some other methods of printing, Habitat requires no additional heat, UV lighting, or additional energy consumption to cure. This cuts our energy consumption substantially and we'll be sharing precise percentages with you in the very near future.

     Improved print quality.  No fillers and no hazardous chemicals means everything in Habitat produces color and provides greater consistency.  

 

Real, tangible benefits for all concerned.....at no additional cost! 

What's not to love about that?  Now, we can all breathe a little easier.
