Why Go Green?

Each of us has to start somewhere – it is too important not to.  Utilizing recycled content materials in packaging will reduce how many trees and how much petroleum our society consumes annually.  Environmental stewardship at the corporate and consumer levels is a responsibility we all share.

 

What Eco-Friendly papers does Pack America offer?

From 100% post consumer waste (PCW) to recycled stock created from sugar cane, we have endeavored to diversify our paper for our clientele.  Your choices include chlorine free white uncoated, sugar cane C1S, natural fiber camel and traditional brown kraft stocks.  We even offer a paper made from recycled envelopes!

 

Is Pack America Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) accredited?

As of summer 2007 we are still in the application and accreditation process with FSC.  We hope to have FSC accreditation established by early 2008.

 

How can plastic bags be more Eco-Friendly?

Current technology allows poly bags to be made with a variety of environmentally responsible materials.  Whether it is using post consumer resin (PCR) or a fully biodegradable resin mix, companies can demonstrate to their consumer base that conscientious forethought has gone into the making of the plastic bags.

 

How do Reusable Bags figure in the mix?

Reusable bags are a popular choice for those companies that want to offer their customers bag options that feature longer life spans.  Pack America offers a diverse array of bags created from natural fiber materials such as cotton, hemp and jute.  Reusable bags are made from fully sustainable natural materials and bode well with Eco-Friendly marketing messages.
