WHERE WE LIVE IS WORTH INVESTING IN.
Using paper manufactured by Rolland Inc. is a simple, concrete
and effective way of conveying our concerns for the environment.
This piece was printed on Rolland Enviro Satin Text and Rolland
Enviro Cover which are Ecologo/UL, Processed Chlorine Free
(PCF), Forest Stewardship Council (FSC
®
) certified, designated
Ancient Forest Friendly™, and manufactured in Canada from
100% post-consumer waste fiber recovered entirely from paper
used by North American consumers through recycling programs
using biogas energy – 93% of the mill's paper machines are
powered with biogas energy.
Biogas is a locally sourced and renewable energy using methane
gas – when burned, methane becomes 21 times less harmful to
the atmosphere. By using biogas energy instead of fossil fuels,
Rolland Inc. reduced their carbon dioxide emissions by 70,000 tons
annually which is the equivalent of 23,400 compact cars. In
addition, the manufacturing process for Rolland paper uses
6 times less water than the industry average and contains
no chlorine or derivatives. For more information, visit
