Consideration for the environment is part of our DNA
Since 1993 Stibo Complete has worked intensively on optimising processes and resource consumption to ensure that our footprint on the planet is as gentle as possible. In 1996, we got our first environmental certification.
Therefore, for us, compassion for the environment is nothing new. It is part of our DNA, the way we think and the way we run our business. And that is how it will be in the future too.
30.000t CO2 have been compensated so far
Have you heard? With Evers ReForest, we have planted over 400,000 trees since 2011 across an area of 500,000 square meters. Besides offsetting CO2 emissions, these forests provide new habitats for animals and promote biodiversity. And you are entirely welcome to visit the forests at any time.
Stibo Complete and the UN Global Goals
At Stibo Complete, we work with four of the UN’s Global Goals and defined sub-goals. The selected Global Goals have been incorporated into our management system, and we support efforts with relevant certifications wherever possible. This ensures that we have a continuous overview and a high degree of transparency.
Our printed materials originate from well-managed forestry
It is a myth that printed materials harm forests. Contrary to what many may believe, it is actually essential that we use our forests so that there continues to be an incentive to cultivate them.
The crucial thing is that the wood we harvest and use for printed materials does not come from controversial sources.
PEFC™ is a traceability certification that ensures that the material used for PEFC-certified printed materials can be traced throughout the processing chain from the forest to the consumer.
Furthermore, our FSC® certification helps ensure that the material used for our printed materials contributes to responsible forestry.
We recycle paper twenty-five times
When it comes to printed matter, it is not a quality in itself that the material is biodegradable. If printed matter is disposed of in the compost heap, the resource is quite simply lost.
Instead, we allow the source to enter a larger circuit in which it is used in the best possible way – up to as many as 25 times.
Thereafter, it is incorporated as biofuel in Danish heat and power plants.
The Nordic Swan label is not a flash in the pan
Stibo Complete was among the first in the Nordic region to obtain the Nordic Swan Ecolabel back in 1996. Even then, the environment was a high priority for us.
Printed matter bearing the Nordic Swan Ecolabel meets:
• stringent environmental requirements in all cycles of the product’s life cycle.
• stringent requirements for the use of chemicals
• continuous tightening up on the basis of the latest knowledge and developments.
• product-specific certification and control.
Even though the Nordic Swan Ecolabel has been in existence for several decades, that does not mean that it is an obsolete certification. Quite the contrary, it has only become stronger as time has passed.
