Proudly Using 100% Recycled Materials
A good package protects and enhances the product inside. But in today's competitive market, a better package also protects and enhances the world outside. Today's consumers are challenging manufacturers to demonstrate a commitment to the future of our planet and its resources. The paperboard packaging industry is helping you meet that challenge with environmentally friendly solutions. According to Paperboard Packaging Alliance (PPA): "Paperboard's contributions to source reduction go beyond the production of innovative, material- and space-efficient packaging. Virtually all paper mills use 100% of the wood fiber (virgin or recycled) while using less water and fewer chemicals than before. Wood wastes and byproducts of the pulping process are routinely converted to energy, reducing our industry's reliance on high-priced, nonrenewable fossil fuels." ![]() The forestry department and the PPA state: "The United States forest products industry plants an average of 1.7 million trees every day - five new trees for every tree harvested. The amount of standing timber in U.S. forests has increased by nearly 40 percent over the past half-century, and by 10 million between 1987 and 2002. But sustainable forestry goes beyond reforestation. It encompasses a commitment to the long-term health of the entire forest environment: the soil, the wildlife and other plants, and to the quality of the air and water. The American forest products industry is working hard to nurture the future health of America's forest ecosystems through company programs, industry-wide initiatives and partnerships with government agencies and environmental groups." Please join in to help save our environment by using our 100% recyclable packaging products and eliminate over packaging, non-recyclable packaging, and most of all packaging waste which has become an undesirable trend in today's market place.
