Blue Angel
![]() |
All paper grades used in KIT's central print shops are Blue Angel certified. We deliver our print products with an e-car. For large orders, we turn to a Blue Angel-certified framework contract partner throughout the entire printing process, who prints with organic inks and has much more to offer in terms of sustainability. |
Recyclable FOREX rigid foam boards
![]() |
FOREX rigid foam boards, which are used at events as stands, signage or signposts, are lightweight, very stable, lightfast, weather-resistant, flame-retardant and self-extinguishing. They are finished exclusively with removable film in the Media Production department, taken back after use and freshly covered for reuse. We will indicate this with a request to return the panels to us. |
