What is the FSC®?
The Forest Stewardship Council® is an organisation working to promote the practice of responsible forestry across the world. They set standards for forest products and independently certify that these standards are being met. But this is more than just recycling. FSC® certified paper is typically composed of ‘virgin’ tree fibres rather than already recycled fibres, although recycled paper can be FSC® certified.
What is FSC® certified paper?
The paper we use has been sourced in a more environmentally friendly, socially responsible and economically viable manner from a well-managed forest and other controlled sources. This paper is brighter and smoother, which helps provide a more vibrant print.
How do our FSC® certified stocks* stack up?
Glossary of Terms:
Grammage: This is the weight of the paper (grams per square metre) and is not to be confused with the thickness.
Opacity: The higher the percentage, the more opaque the paper and the less show-through.
Thickness: This is the thickness of the paper measured in micrometres and is not to be confused with weight.
CIE Whiteness: The CIE measure of whiteness is a measurement of the light reflected by the paper across the visible (daylight) spectrum.
