- Paper Profile: Standardized report form for environmental product information
- Information on the product’s composition, key environmental parameters, environmental
management, and wood procurement is a key element - Represents a pledge to minimize the impact of production on the environment
Koehler Paper, a Koehler Group company, has been a member of Paper Profile since January 2022. Paper Profile is a consortium of European pulp, paper, and paperboard manufacturers that was founded in 2000 and offers a standardized report form for environmental product information that was developed together with the trade sector and industrial associations of leading pulp, paper, and paperboard manufacturers. This form primarily revolves around information regarding the product’s composition, key environmental parameters, environmental management, and wood and pulp
procurement. In turn, this information is intended to enable pulp, paper, and paperboard buyers to make well-informed product choices.
Paper Profile members pledge to minimize the impact of their production operations on the environment. The corresponding actions include improvements to production processes, as well as emissions monitoring for air and water. In addition, most of the energy used for production comes from renewable sources. “This basic foundation means that Paper Profile is a perfect fit for Koehler and our sustainability goals,” says Koehler Sustainability Manager Jens Kriete.
In addition to consistently meeting strict environmental requirements, the European pulp and paper industry has been a pioneer of transparent environmental reporting to authorities, stakeholders, and customers for decades.
