UNICOR incorporates green processes into every facet of its printing services. Non-alcohol/VOC-free agents are used to run its presses. We offer a cost-effective way to capture, convert, retain and retrieve information for government agencies in need of electronic imaging services, OCR, indexing and coding services, resulting in material and equipment savings, as well as reduced storage space.

During Fiscal Year 2008, printing and bindery operations returned in excess of 650 tons of waste to the paper market for the production of new paper products.

We also provide laundry and dry cleaning services for Department of Defense, Department of Justice and other federal agencies. All detergents, bleaches and dry cleaning agents used are EPA-approved. They are oxygen-rich, rather than chlorine-based, which helps prolong fabric life. All cleaning agents are collected and appropriately disposed. And for added energy efficiency, water from the most recent rinse loads flows through heat exchangers which, in turn, warm clean water to launder subsequent loads.
