Note:
In the past, we have ranked the top 30 printers from the PI top 400 list that use paper substrates. In 2019, we are focusing on the top 20 PI printers with paper substrates, as well as printers our brand partners have asked us to include in the ranking. The following printers ranked 21-30 in the 2018 PI Top 400 list have not been formally ranked and consulted in the 2019 Blueline, due to smaller market share and lack of substantive demonstrable action on sustainability over the years. Based on transparent website content, these printers would have earned red ink drops, with 0-6 points, if formally ranked in 2019: Command Companies (not including Unimac), 4over Inc., Vomela Specialty, Orora Visual, DATA Communications Management, Walsworth and Mittera Group.

https://piworld.tradepub.com/free/w_altf01/ The PI Top 400 lists printers who voluntarily report on annual sales, therefore some of North America's largest printers may not be included.

The company has a paper 'platform' or a specific policy which usually includes goals to protect Ancient and Endangered forest ecosystems, increase the use of recycled content etc., published on website.
NP**
Company has a policy that is not posted publicly
[2]
This means having a policy that includes language to protect Ancient & Endangered forests and species at source, not generic language about using fiber from legal and certified sources
[3]
For example the CSR report provides detail on the percent of FSC paper sourced since this exceeds the GRI Disclosure for 301-2 Recycled input materials used. https://www.globalreporting.org/standards/gri-standards-download-center

In a circular economy there is no product called “waste”; there is only materials flow. Circular Economy encompasses internal and external systems such that a by-product of a process is another company’s or processes feedstock. A point is given to printers that include web content about leadership in the circular economy, above and beyond recycling initiatives.

A point is only awarded to printers that have worked with a mill to develop a private label sheet that meets Canopy's Ancient Forest Friendly Criteria: http://canopyplanet.org/solutions/ancient-forest-friendly/ and the Superior Step of the Paper Steps: http://canopyplanet.org/solutions/ancient-forest-friendly/
