This Chain-of-Custody Certification is a process of tracking and documenting the ownership of wood products from the forest through the various stages of production to the end user. It allows Burton & Mayer's customers who choose FSC certified paper to have the FSC and Rainforest Alliance logos printed on their pieces, and promote themselves as conforming to FSC standards.

This file shows our formal certification:

Burton & Mayer, Inc. received their GRACol G7 Master Printer color control certification. The GRACoL 7 Master Printer program requires companies to undergo an audit process of press color measurement equipment, process control procedures, and quality of printing to qualify for the GRACoL 7 Master Printer program.

The International Digital Enterprise Alliance G7™ Master qualification program identifies only those printing companies who have been trained to proof and print using the new G7™ methodology. The qualification mark means that the printer uses the most modern technology, techniques and process controls and standards required to produce high-quality commercial printing. To continue Master Printer status, Burton & Mayer, Inc. will go through a yearly re-certification to assure we maintain IDEAlliance calibration and processes based on ISO 12647 print standards.
