The PEFC UK has produced a brochure promoting responsibly sourced and labelled materials used in the production of food and beverage packaging.

The new brochure highlights the facts that consumers are keen to make good environmental choices in their purchases, and this is particularly relevant when it comes to food packaging for items in which they take-away their morning coffee, snack, lunch, or evening meal.

Consumers want to see that their packaging, be it for food or beverage items, has been responsibly sourced, is easy to recycle and has a minimal impact on the environment, the world’s resources, and forests.

As the brochure highlights, consumers trust labels, and therefore increasingly manufacturers are now producing packaging materials that are certified as sustainable through assurance and certification schemes such as PEFC.

The brochure also features case studies from companies such as AB Group Packaging, Colpac and Benders Paper Cups.

PEFC has certified more than 300 million hectares of forests to its internationally recognised Sustainability Benchmarks, supplying more than 18,000 Chain of Custody certified companies with responsibly sourced timber and wood products, such as those used in producing fibre-based paper products such as packaging.
