ISO 14001 Environmental Award for Altaimage
Following an assessment by an independent body, Altaimage has been awarded BS EN ISO 14001:2004 certification. This certification has only been achieved by less than 1% of UK businesses and this prestigious award is supported by the Government and recognised world-wide.
"By establishing a commitment to reduce, reuse and recycle waste and to efficiently use energy, we are taking an important step toward preserving the environment, and helping our customers achieve their own environmental goals" says Rob King, Joint Managing Director. "We have set high targets for further improvement and are passionate to make a difference". Graeme Elmer, who undertook the assessment, paid particular tribute to "the investment in people and training that enables Altaimage to provide an efficient and environmentally friendly service to their customers."

Rob King is surprisingly humble. Especially since his baby, Altaimage (just seven years old), has some of the biggest clients in the publishing sector. BBC Worldwide, Penguin, the National Portrait Gallery, Random House and the British Film Institute are just a taster of the prestigious roster the pre-press and digital print company has managed to accumulate. Even its location, in London's Docklands, is impressive.
"We have a good relationship with our clients. We love what we do and, more importantly, we are excited about it," says joint managing director King. "With some of the bigger companies, it's just numbers." Whereas King insists that he likes to treat clients with more care.

Big companies aren't a threat to Altaimage. After all, it has already recruited two ex-Wyndeham staff. Former Wyndeham Pre-press technical sales director Nick Finegold joined the company in July, while in August Altaimage recruited Liam West, previously production manager at Wyndeham, into a senior sales and production role.
