Evergreen continues to lead all state of Washington colleges and universities in sustainable paper purchasing practice!
We are the only public institution purchasing only 100% recycled copier/printer paper, and we’ve been doing it for well over a year now.
Green River Community College, Evergreen, and Western Washington University recently collaborated to develop a solicitation for 100% recycled content copier/printer paper. Green River CC, as the lead institution, has been awarded a WIPHE (WA Institutions of Public Higher Education) contract to Xpedx for Harbor 100, which is manufactured by Grays Harbor Paper located in Hoquiam, WA.
Evergreen has been purchasing this same product from Xpedx for over a year now; however this contract will lock in terms and pricing. Initial pricing on the new contract is 5% less than Evergreen’s previous pricing and 7% less than the state’s contract pricing for the same product.
Thanks to this collaboration we are able to continue our sustainable purchasing practice and reduce costs.
