Packaging Materials Manufacturer Carccu® Achieves FSC Forest Certification as a Milestone in Environmental Responsibility
The packaging materials manufacturer Carccu®, based in Sastamala, has reached a significant milestone in environmental responsibility by earning the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) forest certification. This certification underscores Carccu’s commitment to sustainable forestry and ecological sustainability in the production of packaging materials.
An Advocate for Sustainable Forestry
The FSC certification is a respected recognition awarded to companies and organizations that adhere to sustainable forestry principles. The FSC label on paper packaging ensures that the wood used in production comes from forests where environmental, social, and economic sustainability principles are upheld. The certification is granted by an impartial, accredited auditor and is the only wood product certification supported by environmental organizations like WWF, the Finnish Nature League, and Greenpeace. Carccu’s choice to use FSC-certified raw materials demonstrates its dedication to responsible operations and commitment to the sustainable use of forests.
Part of a Broader Sustainability Strategy
Carccu began the process of obtaining FSC certification last year as part of its efforts related to quality management certifications, such as ISO 9001 and ISO 14 001. These certifications are part of the company’s continuous efforts to improve operational quality and environmental friendliness. Last year, Carccu also earned the PEFC forest certification, further supporting its mission to be a leader in sustainable practices within the paper packaging industry.
Carccu’s CEO, Lasse Borg, commented on the achievement: “The certification is proof from an external audit that we are acting responsibly.”
The Future of Responsibility in the Packaging Industry
Carccu’s achievement in obtaining the FSC certification is an important step toward a more sustainable future in the paper packaging industry. The company’s investment in sustainable forestry and environmental responsibility highlights its commitment to environmental welfare and responsible business practices. The certification also serves as an example to other industry players, encouraging the entire industry to integrate environmental responsibility into its business strategy.
Carccu’s accomplishment in obtaining the FSC certification is a significant indication of its effort to align business with sustainable development. This certification reinforces Carccu’s position as a responsible operator that prioritizes environmental welfare in all its activities.
