Leading the Way in Environmental Leadership
Environmental leadership means more than just talking the talk. This project acts as both educator and innovator. It teaches the benefits of making environmentally responsible paper choices and pushes the marketplace to rethink its habits. The goal? To spark a sustainable paper industry for tomorrow. Their market-leading environmental product lines don’t just talk about change — they prove what’s possible, paving the way for competitors and a true market shift towards sustainability.
Sustainable Production Practices That Matter
Every step in the production process is designed with sustainability in mind. By using high post-consumer recycled fiber, the project protects forests and reduces reliance on virgin fiber. It also tackles the waste stream head-on by increasing demand for recycled fiber, which helps keep wastepaper out of landfills. Water usage is another focus — recycled paper manufacturing uses up to 25% less water than traditional methods. Plus, less energy is consumed overall, making the entire process more eco-friendly. It’s a holistic approach that benefits the planet at every turn.
