Celebrating Earth Day and introducing our Solar Initiative
- Created: Wednesday, 22 April 2020
On Earth Day, Villanti Printers is excited to announce the installation of one of the largest rooftop solar arrays in Vermont. This array will offset over 250 tonnes of CO2 - that’s the equivalent of planting over 1,000 trees!
Villanti’s commitment to environmental responsibility is part of our company’s foundation. One of our core values is to treat the planet with respect and going solar is an impactful and important step.
Other steps we’ve taken throughout the years to reduce our carbon footprint:
-We were the first FSC® (Forest Stewardship Council®) certified printer in Vermont.
-We’re one of a handful of Green-E certified printers in the country.
-We continually strive to recycle and reduce the amount of waste produced by the printing processes.
-Our inks free of volatile organic compounds (VOCs).
Villanti partnered with local solar provider SunCommon to ensure the rooftop array met our energy needs. Like Villanti, SunCommon is also a mission-driven, locally owned company who is committed to helping to fight climate change, making the decision to partner with them an easy one for Villanti.
Villanti utilizes state of the art offset and digital printing presses to produce a complete offering of print, packaging and mailing services to customers both regionally and nationally. The addition of this solar array will help to power our plant and speaks to our heritage of eco-friendly work ethics that Villanti embraces. We're proud to partner with likeminded clients to continue to produce creative, unique projects and also be a steward of the planet.
Better, Stronger, Faster: Our New Press!
- Created: Wednesday, 23 March 2016
We have some exciting news that we just can't keep to ourselves any longer: We bought a new press—a Heidelberg Speedmaster XL 106 6+L. It's going to be installed at the end of March and it should be blasting out sheets (18,000 an hour!) by the end of April.
A new press doesn't come cheap—especially not Heidelbergs, which are basically the Mercedes of presses. But we see it as an investment in the future of Villanti, our employees, and our partners. We're already fast and we already deliver a high-quality product, but this new press will double our production speed while also providing remarkable color stability and control throughout every run.
Getting our EverydayHappy on!

Seems like everyone's talking about sustainability these days. But we at Villanti Printers think it's important to point out that the idea of sustainability is based on something that has guided our every move since 1959: a belief in the future. This philosophy led EverydayHappy to partner with us for their welcome letters.
Absolutely Foldtastic!

We were over the moon when we found out that a brochure Villanti produced for St. Lawrence University was featured on Foldfactory's video series, 60-Second Super-Cool Fold of the Week. For those of you who aren't fold fanatics, Foldfactory has been showcasing a new awesome fold every week for more than six years. The range of creativity out there is truly inspiring.
