Strathmore the Eco Choice for Envelopes Online

Press release from the issuing company

Sun Prairie, Wis. (December 5, 2007) - The Paper Mill Store proudly introduces the broadest stocking inventory of Strathmore envelopes online at its leading paper store site, thepapermillstore.com. The Paper Mill Store (TPMS) stocks more than 180 Strathmore Writing and Script envelope items, which are ready for immediate shipment from TPMS's Neenah, Wis., warehouse. The new product offering includes recycled and FSC-certified options and a breadth of sizes ranging from A-2 through A-10 as well as Monarch and #10 commercial.
Strathmore papers are the most trusted and comprehensive writing papers on the market. Manufactured by Mohawk Fine Papers, Strathmore is made carbon neutral with Green-e certified renewable wind energy. As a Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) Chain of Custody- (CoC) certified company utilizing 100% wind power for its electricity needs, The Paper Mill Store's environmental commitment is well-aligned with the eco-initiatives of Mohawk. Together they're providing the print and design community the "paper of choice" for large and small businesses that need to produce coordinated identity programs, while at the same time want to express their environmental values.
     "When our customers choose an eco envelope like Strathmore, they create less air pollution, reduce overall gas emissions and generally benefit society and the environment," said Brian Cowie, CEO of The Paper Mill Store. "With so many Strathmore envelopes available for immediate shipment, designers will have no problem completing their corporate identity projects in a timely and eco-friendly fashion."
Strathmore paper is made carbon neutral within Mohawk's production processes by offsetting thermal manufacturing emissions with VERs (verified emissions reduction credits) and emissions from purchased electricity with RECs (Renewable Energy Credits) from Green-e certified wind power projects.
Strathmore Script 100% PCW (Post Consumer Waste) items contain 100% PCW recycled fiber and are FSC certified. FSC certification ensures responsible use of forest resources. Maintaining the FSC Chain of Custody (CoC) is a key component to the FSC audit trail structure, which ultimately allows customers to use the FSC logo of forest responsibility within their design projects.
