Our tape backings offer high biobased content while addressing the end-of-life concern with a high recyclability performance to re-process fibers into new paper.

• FSC® certified fibers

We source our wood fibers from sustainably-managed forests, meaning that their regenerative capacity and biological diversity are maintained.

Our approach to sustainability is based on minimizing the environmental impact of our operations and products. We apply the principles of Eco-Design and consider life cycle assessments in our product development, so we can determine the impacts our products and processes have on the environment and reduce them. 

At many of our Ahlstrom production sites, we adhere to a range of internationally recognized, third-party audited standards that support our sustainability progress. Certification topics include quality, environmental, health and safety and energy management systems, responsible forestry practices in supply chains, and standards for medical devices and food products.
