Cardboard

Faber-Castell Peru is switching from plastic to cardboard packaging Plastic packaging is an increasing environmental problem. This is why Faber-Castell Peru has taken its first step and switched children's marker packaging to cardboard. By 2020, 23 items (SKUs) had already been switched to recyclable cardboard packaging. On this basis, new packaging designs and alternatives made from cardboard will be developed for the blister cards (plastic covers).

Recycled plastic products from Faber-Castell Germany in sustainable packaging Working closely with the production site in Austria, some environmental improvements have been made in the markers produced there. Firstly, the Textliner 46 was converted to recycled plastic. The housing (cap and barrel) consists of 100% recycled plastic. The packaging is also completely made from recycled plastic, putting the finishing touch on the concept. Furthermore, there is a Special Edition on the theme of “Travel” with the Textliner 46s in eco-friendly cardboard packaging. The promotional display consists of 100% recycled plastic.
