Advanced Image Direct is the premier West Coast production environment for many Fortune 500 companies across the United States.

FULLERTON,
Calif. (April 24, 2012) – Advanced Image Direct (AID) today announced that it has joined Two Sides,
the fast-growing non-profit organization established to promote the responsible
production, use and sustainability of print and paper.

“As one of the largest and most secure
print/production manufacturing platforms in the United States, Advanced Image
Direct’s commitment to the highest green manufacturing and product standards is
a perfect fit with Two Sides’ mission to promote sustainable business practices
in the print and paper industry and to dispel misconceptions about the medium’s
sustainability,” says AID Owner Frank Verrill. “The Two Sides’ focus on factual information
from credible sources will help Advanced Image Direct enhance our own efforts
to spread the word about the many environmental, social and economic benefits
of print and paper.”

“Print
and paper have a great environmental story to tell, and Two Sides is pleased to
have Advanced Image Direct join our growing U.S. effort to get the word out to
as many people as possible,” says Two Sides President Phil Riebel. “Made from one of the earth’s few truly
renewable resources – responsibly managed forests – print and paper is the most
recycled commodity in the world. In the
United States, the paper recovery rate reached an all-time high of 66.8 percent
in 2011. In addition, the demand for
responsibly grown wood fiber to make print and paper products provides a long-term
financial incentive for private landowners to manage their land sustainably
instead of selling it for development,” he says. “And in the United States, the
print, paper and forest products supply chain supports hundreds of thousands of
jobs.”
