Pac 12 Sustainability Conference

ECO-FRIENDLY PROJECT SPOTLIGHT

‘Going green’ is no longer just a catchphrase. For the health of our planet, it’s essential for companies, large and small, to actively take steps in reducing their greenhouse emissions and physical waste footprint. As a #superformat printer, we’ve made a significant commitment to protecting our environment by seeking out innovative, eco-friendly print materials and focusing on lean production practices that use less energy and waste fewer resources.

 

PAC 12 Team Green – Sustainability Conference

To facilitate the PAC 12 Team Green’s commitment to zero waste across all 12 participating campuses, we’re proud to share a unique environmentally friendly project that we recently produced for them. The PAC 12 Team Green encourages schools to move towards zero waste and to be creative in developing practices to reuse, recycle, compost, or by working with partners to drive impactful changes.

The Project – Produce a free-standing 90″ tall tree out of environmentally friendly materials that will stand near the entrance of the PAC 12 Sustainability Conference in June 2019. SuperGraphics engineered and produced the tree in conjunction with Xanita Board and their team.  Multi-colored leaves with the PAC 12 Team Green logo printed on one side and space to write on the other were also produced.  Attendees wrote sustainability pledges, goals, and creative ideas on the leaves then attached them to the tree.”

Large-format wall graphic inside a University of Montana athletics facility featuring Grizzly football players lined up at the line of scrimmage with bold "MONTANA" text overlay
Greg Sundberg has spent 25 years at the University of Montana proving that championship programs aren't just built by coaches and athletes — they're built by the environments they walk into every day. Here's what one of college athletics' most tenured leaders has learned about the strategic power of branded spaces.

Brooks Running takes ownership of its brand seriously — and Johnny Hubbard is a big reason why. As Creative Production Design Manager, he's spent 12 years building the production design infrastructure that translates Brooks' creative into every window, wall, and surface it lives on. Now, as Brooks opens its first owned retail stores, that foundation is exactly what's making it possible. Here's how it works.

Ellie DiPietro, Director of Research + Collections at the Jefferson County Historical Society, shares how her team reimagined the Museum of Art + History from the ground up — and why the smartest spaces aren't the most permanent. They're the ones designed to keep becoming something new.
