Canon Europe has launched Red Label Zero FSC and Recycled White Zero FSC, which it says are the first cradle-to- customer carbon neutral, technical wide-format papers for the architectural, engineering, construction and manufacturing (AECM) industry.
To ensure both papers are as sustainable as possible, Canon only partners with suppliers who meet the highest standards of responsibility, as demonstrated by the FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) certification and are constantly striving to improve production processes to minimise CO2 output. The company has also worked to reduce the number of transport movements to further lower the carbon output in the overall supply chain from paper mills to end-customers/resellers.
Any carbon emissions that remain in the process are offset against recognised compensation programmes through ClimatePartner, which works worldwide on carbon emission reduction projects, such as hydropower and wind energy projects.
