The destruction of natural forests is one of the most significant ecological problems on Earth, massively impairing the global climate balance. Practically every second tree felled for industrial purposes around the world is processed to produce pulp for manufacturing paper. This makes the paper industry a key sector when it comes to considering the future of our forests.
Our sense of responsibility is reflected in our commitment
Forests are an important source of life for human beings, animals and plants. Trees create clean air for us to breathe, store carbon, keep groundwater clean and provide protection against erosion and the reflection of sunlight, all of which regulates our climate.
It is with great concern that we too observe the development and the current demise of our native forests and the associated decline in the biodiversity of flora and fauna. Papier Sprick already makes a major contribution to the relief of forests through production certified for energy management that transforms waste paper into recycled paper. This means that we are already contributing to the preservation of what is an important CO2 reservoir for the Earth’s atmosphere.
But we can do much, much more!
We invest part of our revenues from customer orders in the future of our forests and the planting of new trees.

NEW TREES
PLANT-MY-TREE® – OUR PARTNERS
We have entered a climate protection partnership with PLANT-MY-TREE® to advance our commitment to environmental and climate protection in Germany. The trees are mainly planted in our homeland, making a regional, transparent contribution with real, accessible forests. The newly afforested or reforested areas are subsequently transferred to the PLANT-MY-TREE foundation which will care for them on a sustained level for at least 99 years. The procedures involved and relevant documentation are certified by the TÜV technical inspection association pursuant to DIN ISO 9001:2015.
The best for the environment
100% recycled paper
Our eco-friendly filling and padding papers are Blue Angel award winners and certified by the FSC®. They consist of 100 % recycled paper with no added virgin fibres, optical brighteners or refining agents which are harmful to health.
Conserving the environment & resources
Consistent use of 100% recycled paper preserves and protects our forests and waters. When compared to virgin fibre paper production, our products save over 70% of the water, 60% of the energy and 100% of the wood required while, additionally, generating considerably lower CO2 emissions.
Your one-stop provider – Made in Germany
