Supporting Biodiversity

At Formara, our commitment to sustainability extends to protecting biodiversity and promoting responsible forestry practices. As authorised users of the FSC® (Forest Stewardship Council) logo, we ensure that our print materials are sourced from responsibly managed forests that provide environmental, social, and economic benefits.

FSC certification guarantees that the paper and materials we use meet the highest standards for sustainable forestry, supporting the health of our planet while delivering quality products to our customers.

Our partnership with FSC reflects our belief in creating a balance between business and the environment. By adhering to stringent sustainability standards, we strive to reduce our environmental impact while championing the health of ecosystems worldwide.

Our Commitment to Essex Wildlife Trust

In addition, we are members of the Essex Wildlife Trust, actively contributing to the conservation of local wildlife and natural habitats. By supporting these initiatives, we help protect and nurture biodiversity for future generations.

Through our longstanding 15 year silver membership with the Essex Wildlife Trust, we are directly involved in local conservation efforts, working towards preserving the beauty and diversity of our surrounding environment. This partnership underscores our commitment to not only global sustainability standards but also regional wildlife protection.

Together, we can make Formara's sustainable printing solutions a cornerstone of environmental stewardship while ensuring that biodiversity is protected at both the global and local levels.

Our Partnership with Two Sides: Promoting Sustainable Print

At Formara, we are committed to sustainability, which is why we are proud members of Two Sides, a global initiative dedicated to promoting the environmental benefits of print, paper, and packaging. Through this partnership, we help dispel common myths about the print industry and advocate for the responsible use of paper from sustainable sources.

By supporting Two Sides, we reinforce our commitment to transparency, recycling, and reducing environmental impact. Print remains one of the most sustainable communication methods, and we are dedicated to educating businesses and consumers on its benefits while continuously improving our own sustainable practices.

As part of this commitment, we support the Love Paper campaign, an initiative by Two Sides that raises consumer awareness of the positive, sustainable story behind print and paper. Love Paper highlights paper’s renewable nature, recyclability, and role in the circular economy, encouraging people to make informed choices about the communications they receive.

We are excited to feature the Love Paper – The Story of Paper video, which brings this message to life by showing how paper is made, used, and recycled. 

By supporting Two Sides and its Love Paper campaign, we reinforce our commitment to transparency, recycling, and reducing environmental impact. Print remains one of the most sustainable communication methods, and we are dedicated to educating businesses and consumers on its benefits while continuously improving our own sustainable practices.
