Paper merchant, Spicers Paper, is pleased to announce that it can now boast certification under the Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification Chain of Custody.
Founded in 1999, the Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification (PEFC) is an independent, non-profit, non-governmental organisation which promotes responsible and sustainably managed forests through independent third party certification.
By complying with the PEFC’s assurance mechanisms, Spicers builds on its already enviable reputation of assurance and reliability among Australia’s print and design industries. It follows the company’s previous market-leading initiative when, in 2005, Spicers, along with Dalton, became the first paper merchant to be certified under the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) Chain of Custody scheme.
Spicers regards the dual PEFC and FSC endorsements as a boon to its clients, who will now be able to enjoy an even wider choice of environmentally responsible paper grades.
Spicers also hopes that greater exposure to high-quality green papers will help educate and inform customers on the importance of addressing their own environmental performance.
Spicers Paper holds PEFC certification number SGS-PEFC/COC-0160. The full list of available paper grades will filter into the market over the coming months.
