Sustainability

Sustainability and environmental issues have been a high priority at PAPSTAR for many years! They have a significant impact on decisions and shape a wide range of processes. Not only as isolated measures, but as a continuous development process in their entirety.

History

High-quality cardboard and paperboard products have always been a strength of the PAPSTAR brand, which has its origins in the cardboard factory founded in 1873 by Oswald Matheis in Schleiden-Olef, Germany. The actual PAPSTAR company was launched in 1979 as a sales company (Vertriebsgesellschaft mbH & Co. KG).

Awards

Awards such as the GREEN BRANDS seal of approval, inclusion in the select circle of “Große deutsche Marken des Jahrhunderts”, and a gold rating from EcoVadis, a globally recognized provider of sustainability assessments, confirm PAPSTAR's own standards and sharpen its brand profile.

Social Responsibility

By joining the UN Global Compact, PAPSTAR commits itself to ongoing support and continuous improvement in the implementation of the ten universal principles relating to human rights, labor standards, environmental protection, and anti-corruption, thereby confirming its own position on sustainability.
