Sustainability is an issue dear to our heart. As a manufacturer of recycled paper and other products made of waste paper, we want to make an active contribution to environmental protection. Our eco-friendly corrugated cardboards and packaging papers are Blue Angel award winners and certified by the FSC®. They consist of 100 % recycled paper from controlled sources with no added virgin fibres, optical brighteners or refining agents which are harmful to health. Our production conserves resources and is realised exclusively in Germany to the latest technical standards – with the assurance of ISO 50001 certification. Consistent use of 100% recycled paper preserves and protects our forests and waters.

RECYCLED PAPER VS. VIRGIN FIBRE PAPER

It pays off!
This table shows you the consumption of resources necessary to produce one tonne of paper in a direct comparison between recycled and virgin fibre papers. When compared to virgin fibre paper production, our products save approximately 78% of the water, 68% of the energy and 100% of the wood required.
