Fram Oy is Vaasa’s 1st Nordic Ecolabel-certified Printing House
September 14, 2010
Fram Oy, one of Vaasa’s premier printing houses, became in the spring of 2010 with the help of Korpi Consulting the first printing house in Vaasa and at the same time the northern-most Nordic Ecolabel (or Joutsenmerkki in Finnish) certified printing house in Finland.
The work on Fram’s certification process started in October 2009, when I visited Fram in Vaasa for a couple of days to observe their operations, collect documents and interview employees. After this initial visit I went through the collected documents, cooperated with the Nordic Ecolabel certification body SFS and arranged everything for Fram, so that after the hectic winter holiday time in the late winter of 2010 an auditor from SFS came for the inspection visit at the facility in Vaasa.
The auditor found everything most satisfactorily, pointed out where he believes some improvements could be made in the future, and granted Fram Oy the use of the Nordic Ecolabel, making the company the first Joutsenmerkki-certified printing house in Vaasa. Fram is very proud of this fact, and also business-wise it was a smart decision, as increasingly Fram’s clients want their print products to be environmentally friendly and bear the Nordicecolabel!
