One year after becoming the first printing company in Romania to achieve ESG certification, Global Print has reached another important milestone in its responsible development strategy. The company has obtained Synesgy recertification for the 2026–2027 period, achieving a score of 97 out of 100—12 points higher than in its previous assessment.

This result confirms the direction the company has pursued in recent years and reflects its continuous investments in efficient technologies, renewable energy, digitalisation, and management practices based on transparency, accountability, and good governance.

It also demonstrates that operational performance and sustainability can be developed simultaneously, without compromise.

Progress Built on Investment and Continuous Improvement

The recertification is more than an update to an existing certification. It provides clear evidence that Global Print’s sustainability strategy is delivering measurable results.

As ESG standards become increasingly important across the European business environment, the company has continued to strengthen its internal processes and invest in infrastructure and energy efficiency. These measures have directly contributed to the higher score achieved following the independent assessment.

Compared with the previous year, the progress recorded demonstrates that integrating ESG principles into day-to-day operations can generate benefits not only for the company itself, but also for its clients and business partners.

Projects That Contributed to Improved ESG Performance

Over the past year, Global Print has implemented a series of initiatives with a direct impact on both environmental performance and operational efficiency.

These include:

• expanding its renewable energy production capacity from approximately 30 kW to around 200 kW;
• developing a LiFePO battery energy storage system with a capacity of approximately 250 kW;
• implementing and certifying an energy management system in accordance with the ISO 50001 standard;
• continuing to invest in modern, energy-efficient production equipment;
• using FSC Chain of Custody-certified materials and certified eco-friendly inks;
• digitalising production processes through software systems that ensure traceability and transparency across the entire production workflow;
• strengthening policies related to employee health and safety, fair recruitment, and corporate governance.

These investments have contributed to reducing the company’s environmental impact, optimising internal processes, and increasing compliance with ESG standards.

ESG: An Increasingly Important Criterion in Supplier Selection

A growing number of companies are incorporating ESG criteria into their supplier and business partner selection processes, while sustainability reporting requirements continue to expand across Europe.

For brands working with Global Print on packaging, point-of-sale materials, retail displays, and other printed products, the recertification provides assurance that the company’s production processes meet high standards of environmental protection, social responsibility, and good governance.

At the same time, working with a supplier that has been independently assessed against ESG criteria can support a company’s own sustainability objectives and enhance the credibility of its sustainability reporting.

Sustainability as a Strategic Direction

For Global Print, one of Romania’s leading printing companies, ESG certification is not regarded as an end goal, but as an indicator of the progress achieved through a long-term development strategy.

The company continues to invest in renewable energy, automation, digitalisation, and state-of-the-art technologies, with the aim of reducing its environmental impact while improving the efficiency of its production processes.

Through this latest recertification, Global Print Printing Company further strengthens its position among the companies demonstrating that industrial performance and environmental responsibility can advance in the same direction.

The company offers its partners a collaboration model built on transparency, quality, accountability, and sustainable development.
