Specialty is focused on sustainable labeling. We are committed to excellence and leadership in protecting the environment by reducing waste wherever possible. We strive to minimize adverse impact on the air, water, and land through pollution prevention, paper recycling, and energy conservation.
In 2021, Specialty renewed our East Windsor, CT facility as a SGP sustainable printer.

In 2003, Specialty, Tri-Gen, and International Paper Products created the industries first recycling program for pressure sensitive label products.
With this program, over 85% of our waste is recycled and sent to a proprietary processing plant where it is turned into fuel bricks that are sold to energy companies as a fuel source. After the fuel bricks are burned, the remaining ash is then recycled and sold to asphalt companies for use in paving our roads. This unique program is now viewed in our industry as a model for all large label manufacturers.
