Pregis®, a global leader in protective packaging solutions, advances the sustainability of its line of Pregis EverTec™ mailers with the introduction of paper certified to the Sustainable Forestry Initiative® (SFI) standard. Choosing SFI provides an assurance that the Pregis supply chain supports environmental, social and governance commitments.
The certification ensures Pregis EverTec Cushioned and Non-Cushioned Mailers are made with paper from trees grown in forests that meet stringent requirements to conserve water quality, biodiversity, and wildlife habitat.
Additionally, Pregis added EverTec Cushioned and Non-Cushioned stock mailers to its Inspyre™ brand portfolio, which is a brand member of 1% for the Planet. This non-profit accelerates and verifies environmental giving by facilitating donations to responsible charities. Through 1% for the Planet, Pregis donates 1% of Inspyre product revenues to support the Uzima Clean Water Mission, exemplifying its dedication to the global community by making a charitable impact in concert with sustainable product design.
“Our commitment to using SFI® certifiably sourced paper in our EverTec Mailers is a testament to our ongoing commitment to prioritizing sustainability across our portfolio,” states Ryan Wolcott, Chief Sustainability Officer for Pregis. “The incorporation of SFI®-certified paper, as well as our new line of Pregis EverTec Inspyre Mailers, are just the first new advancements we’ll be introducing in order to further our sustainability journey.”
EverTec Mailers are robust yet lightweight packaging solutions that significantly minimize material waste. The mailers also lessen dependence on corrugated boxes and enhance distribution efficacy. Importantly, by using EverTec Mailers, consumers are afforded the convenience of a curbside recyclable option. This strikes a compelling balance between environmental responsibility and functional performance for brands.
