Brussels, Belgium – International Paper, the world’s largest paper and packaging company, has further underlined its commitment to environmental sustainability by achieving Forest Stewardship Council® (FSC®) accreditation for its HP Home and Office and HP Office brands within its HP Everyday Papers range. 

The grades will become FSC® certified with effect from the end of June 2013. This will mean that all the paper brands within the HP Everyday Papers range produced by International Paper will either be Forest Stewardship Council® (FSC®) or Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification (PEFC) certified, underlining the range’s high environmental principles and credentials.

International Paper has the Global Exclusive Agreement to manufacture HP Everyday Papers. 

All HP Papers are produced with 100% raw material sourced from sustainably managed forests.

This latest environmental accreditation follows the recent announcement of EU Eco-label accreditation for the HP Everyday Papers range, adding to its existing environmental endorsements. 

UK and Ireland Country Manager Mike Robertson says: “This is a further step in our commitment to supplying our key brands with environmental certification and will continue to enhance the appeal of HP Everyday Papers.” 

The HP Everyday Paper range already has high environmental credentials, with its 75gsm A4 grade available with Forest Stewardship Council® (FSC®) accreditation. As a further endorsement of its environmental performance, the HP Everyday Papers range is also PEFC certified.

The HP Everyday Paper’s range’s high environmental credentials were further underlined when new packaging was launched for the range. The new packaging carries environmental certification more predominantly on the rear panel, supporting and endorsing HP’s Environmental Paper Policy (EPP). This provides information and environmental facts surrounding forest certification, recycling, renewable energy and sustainability.
