Canvas Dreams has taken steps to recycle and reduce as much waste from operating our company as possible.

Aggressive Recycling

All of our paper and cardboard is regularly recycled. Metal and other items are recycled at Portland-area drop-offs. "Non-recyclable" packaging and shipping materials, including styrofoam and bubble wraps, are donated to the local Postal Annex, where they can be reused as packing materials.

Transportation

Through an open telecommuting program, each of our staff are able to save thousands of miles of driving each year. Further, we carpool and take mass-transit whenever possible, to further reduce our use of fuel.

Marketing Collateral and Paper Reduction

All of our marketing collateral is printed using soy-based ink and low-VOC UV coating on minimum 30% recycled paper.

Whenever possible, we utilize paperless invoicing and payment processes to further minimize waste.
