Glassine-based release liners are mainly used for labels, tapes and medical applications
The move, Mondi explains, will improve the traceability of these products, as the supplier continues to work with partners that manage forests responsibly in line with its pledge to maintain zero deforestation in its forests and supply chain.
Mondi already works with a number of certification bodies to help increase the availability of certified wood fibre in its key wood sourcing markets in Europe.
Stefan Schönberger, head of product sustainability release liner at Mondi, says: “As part of our MAP2030 ambitions, we commit to taking action on climate change, and setting an example for others working in international manufacturing, production and logistics to help them make sustainability a key priority.
“Offering certified base paper is part of this. It is the first step to upgrading our entire release liner portfolio, which will manage our impacts while providing the best possible solutions for the customer and the end consumer.”
