| Partner Profile Curtis Packaging Corporation is an eco-friendly printing and packaging company that manufactures custom folding cartons using 100 percent renewable energy. A veritable “one-stop shop,” Curtis’ many services include printing, die cutting, hot stamping, embossing, windowing, and finishing. Curtis has committed to purchasing a total of 4,524,800 kWh of renewable energy per year—enough to cover 100 percent of its energy usage—for the next three years. The majority of Curtis’ renewable energy mix is wind power, and approximately 30 percent of the purchase includes locally generated wind and hydro. A leader in the industry, Curtis is proud to do its part to protect the environment and knows that its customers will value the commitment it has made to a safe and secure energy future. “Since our press release announcing our commitment to 100 percent green power, we have had newspapers, magazines, and even TV networks contacting us,” said Don Droppo, Jr., Vice President for Sales and Marketing. “We have also signed up new customers because of our ‘green’ commitment. Hopefully after hearing the positive impact this has had on our business, other business owners or corporations may follow suit to do their part to help sustain the environment.” | |
