Focusing on footprint and handprint – for a more sustainable world

More than 400 million tonnes of plastic is produced every year worldwide, half of which is designed to be used only once. Of that, less than 10 percent is recycled. Combating plastic waste is one of the global problems that Ahlstrom can help solve; we offer paper-based solutions that can replace plastic in different applications and have a lower impact on the environment. As we celebrate World Environment Day we take a look at our efforts to minimize the environmental impact of our operations and how our solutions help create a more sustainable world and #BeatPlasticPollution.

Sustainability

Packaging as we know it is changing, does one size fit all?

In our current economy, we take materials from the Earth, make products from them, and eventually throw them away as waste – the process is linear. In a circular economy, we give back more than we take, and eliminate the production of waste at the start. We should aim to keep materials in use for as long as possible, delivered with a net-positive impact on the environment and climate.
