\nPaper production is not bad for forests\n<\/div>
\nThe paper industry does not use tropical wood, but mainly utilizes by-products from the forest and sawmills.\n<\/div>\n<\/div>
\n \n \n\t\n\n\n\n
\nPaper as a natural product\n<\/div>
\nDid you know that... the European paper industry is the world leader in processing sustainably mined raw materials, renewable energy the use of recycled material? For example, 1500 additional soccer fields of forest are planted every day in Europe.\n<\/div>\n<\/div>
\n \n \n\t\n\n\n\n
\nThe area of European forests is growing\n<\/div>
\nBetween 2005 and 2015, European forests grew by an area larger than Switzerland.\n<\/div>\n<\/div>

\n72% of the paper is recycled\n<\/div>
\nIn Europe, we recycle 72% of the paper. Paper can be reused 6 to 7 times.\n<\/div>\n<\/div>
\n \n \n\t\n\n\n\n
\nMore than 60% of European forests FSC or PEFC certified\n<\/div>
\nThis is a \"diploma\" for forest management. These forests are managed sustainably, leading to healthy forests that absorb a lot of CO\u00b2. A young forest absorbs 5 times more CO\u00b2 than an old forest!\n<\/div>\n<\/div>
\n \n \n\t\n\n\n\n
\nConclusion: textbook circular industry\n<\/div>
\nIn part due to a recycling rate of 72%, the paper industry has become a model of circular economy.\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/section>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
