Invest in trees and help
save the environment

PostNow is here to help you send direct mail campaigns to your constituents as cost-effectively as possible. We have partnered with Canada Post to make it simple to get your discount on postage as well as be a printer that will provide print & mail prep service.
At this crucial moment, the Canadian mail sector faces a decisive choice: to lead towards a greener and more sustainable future or fall short of public expectations. Our responsibility is clear—to uphold the highest environmental standards, recognizing the industry’s significance for Canadians and the economy.

Our Commitment To Your Sustainability Goals

A visionary coalition has emerged, including paper manufacturers, marketers, printers, and mailing houses.

They formed the Sustainable Mail Group (SMG) with a mission: to be environmental custodians, offering sustainable solutions aligned with responsible consumer demand.

PostNow is a proud supporter and affiliate to this group and we have now incorporated these values into our system.

We’re Helping To Grow A Forest with Project Forest

Project Forest is a non-profit focused on rewilding local landscapes to capture carbon naturally. Made up of a team of passionate changemakers, we’re creating a community of companies working together to plant forests where Canadians can enjoy them most—close to home.

Together, we’re re-wilding Canada’s landscape. We’re capturing carbon to create clean air. And we’re doing it with people like you — one forest at a time.

It's easy to do your part!

Simply opt-in to offset the carbon used in your campaign during your checkout and that’s it!

For every 10KG of paper used in campaigns sent through the PostNow direct mail platform, you can plant a tree to offset not only your carbon impact, but the entire lifecycle impact of your mail piece. A tree costs approximately $6.50.  And when you opt to plant a tree, we plant another one alongside! That's double the impact and we are proud to be your environmental partner in making that impact.
