Two Sides creates a forum for the print and paper industry to work together and share experiences; improving standards and practices and maximising customer confidence in our print and paper products. Be part of the mission today…


Print and Paper Have A Great Environmental Story To Tell

Print and Paper is Renewable,Recyclable and Powerful, and has been the preferred communications medium for
2,000 years. In a multimedia world, it continues to be highly effective and, used responsibly, is inherently sustainable.


Anti-Greenwash Campaign

Misleading "Go paperless", "go green" and "save trees” statements are common themes these days used by organisations for cost saving purposes and are damaging to the Print and Paper industry. It is our job to refute these claims.
