And, our planet needs to as well.

Our printed matter stems from wellmanaged forestry
It is a myth that printed matter damages forests. Contrary to what many people perhaps believe, it is actually absolutely essential that we use our forests so that there continues to be an incentive to cultivate them.
The crucial thing is that the timber we cut down and use for printed matter does not stem from controversial sources. PEFCTM is a traceability certification that ensures that the consumption of materials for PEFC-certified printed matter can be followed throughout the entire processing chain, from the forest to the consumer.
In addition, our FSC® certification helps ensure that materials consumption for our printed matter corresponds to responsible forestry.
