Building digital business processes prevent the need for taking printouts for manual document processing. Building a digital-first mindset has multiple benefits - majorly, it saves time and reduces costs. Implied cost savings from reduced printing equipment usage and maintenance are exponential.
According to researchers at Xerox - “About half of the documents printed in a typical office are thrown away within 24 hours”
Consuming any form of physical paper is wasteful! Papermaking process, i.e., from forest to office, leaves a high carbon footprint on the environment. It contributes to deforestation, air pollution, water pollution, and squanders other natural resources - oil, energy, and water. In addition, the wood pulping process involved in making paper requires chlorine and produces dioxins - which are among the most toxic pollutants generated by humans.
Did you Know?
500 sheets of paper are made from 6% of a tree.
Only 40% of the wood pulp is consumed to produce paper and the remaining is wasted.
The U.S. accounts for less than 5% of the world’s population but consumes 30% of the world’s paper.
Enterprises lose about $0.06 for each paper wasted.
Every office worker wastes 6 sheets of paper per day on average.
Every year, Americans discard 4 million tonnes of office paper.
A printed document is lost every 12 seconds in the U.S.
70% of U.S. businesses would fail if physical document storage units were hit by natural disasters.
