Lang Papier doubled sales of certified paper
The demand for certified paper from sustainable forestry continues to grow rapidly. This enabled Lang Papier to sell approximately 13,000 tons last year, doubling sales of paper with a PEFC certificate.“We can offer twice as much sustainability, as the wood for our certified papers is renewable through permanent reforestation, and once in circulation the paper is recycled,” says Martin Heinrich, Representative for Management Systems at Lang Papier. “We also obtain our wood largely from forests in the vicinity of our paper mill, with 75 percent certified according to PEFC."Like the entire Myllykoski group, Lang Papier only uses the two uniquely established and acclaimed certification systems, PEFC and FSC. 7.3 million hectares of German forest, roughly two-thirds of the total, is now PEFC-certified.
