Essence Printing located in the center of 'Bio-Town' (South San Francisco - known for their plethora of Bio-Tech firms) has integrated the FSC-Chain-of-Custody (tracking, planning, and management system) to ensure that certified papers are available, identifiable, traceable, and most of all promoted as the next step in environmental responsibility.

"We are strong believers in the protection of our resources …recycling …waste management programs, less chemicals and more environmentally friendly processes… but learning about the FSC and how it impacts us personally, locally and globally - this was a 'no-brainer'", says Brian Fearon -- Director of Corporate Communications at Essence. "It was pure luck [and perhaps just good karma] that lead us toward the certification process… many businesses we work with are looking to take more responsible actions for the environment - by printing collateral's on FSC Certified papers, they [clients] are participating in global forest sustainability… that's a good thing."
