Recycled Paper Usage

We work to be good stewards of the planet.

For years, SanMar catalogs have used paper with a minimum of 10% post-consumer waste. Most of our catalogs also meet strict Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certification standards.

The FSC promotes sustainable forestry and helps decrease the negative effects of logging like water pollution and industrial paper and ink recycling.

Our most eco-friendly catalog to date, the 2008 Essentials Collection Catalog, contains a minimum of 30% recycled material. This puts SanMar in an elite group of companies who use that much recycled content in their catalogs.
