The PrintReleaf partnership, initiated in the fall of 2021, enables DCM to measure its paper consumption in real time via a patented software platform that calculates how many trees were harvested to produce that paper. Based on this calculation, PrintReleaf replants the equivalent number of trees in responsibly managed reforestation projects around the world designated for restoration and conservation.
“This is a significant milestone in our commitment to reducing our environment footprint while at the same time supporting our clients’ efforts to achieve their environmental goals,” said Richard Kellam, President & CEO, DCM. “I’m very proud of the progress we have made in less than two years since the launch of our reforestation program and our partnership with PrintReleaf.”
“It’s exciting to see partners like DCM reach such a major milestone,” said Jordan Darragh, founder and CEO, PrintReleaf. “We’re thrilled they’ve taken the initiative to work with us as a Platinum Channel Partner, and strive to be sustainable in their everyday business practices.”
In conjunction with today’s news, DCM announced plans to significantly expand its reforestation program by including the print facilities of recently acquired Moore Canada Corporation (“MCC”) in the PrintReleaf partnership. DCM will provide more details on the addition of MCC facilities in the near future.

-
