Driving change for future generations

Creating a paper bottle may sound like a caring ambition for the planet. But only by meeting today's and future demands, can we create a circular and renewable business system.

From the forest to the finished paper bottle and through the entire product life cycle, our business must lead by example and withstand being tested, and rightly so.

As an industry spearhead, we see that a paper bottle can reduce emissions by up to 32%, compared to solutions used in the industry today. Naturally, we want this number to stand for something, which is why we're showing how we got there.

Feel free to download a summary of our sustainability analysis below, but as always, we encourage you to reach out.

Responsible forestry

• All bottles being produced by Paboco are FSC® certified and labelled. Although trees are harvested, with the FSC® certification there is no net loss of forest over time.
• Thanks to continuous replanting, there are more trees growing in this region today than 100 years ago.
• For every tree harvested two to three are planted and allowed to grow to an optimal size.
• The capacity of trees to capture carbon dioxide changes over time. Newly planted trees assimilate only small volumes of carbon dioxide – but their capacity then starts to increase dramatically.
• Growing trees bind more carbon dioxide than older trees. When the forest has finished growing, the net uptake of carbon dioxide is zero until the new forest is planted and starts to grow again.
• Active and responsible forestry therefore play a key role in combatting climate change.
