The UK Environment Agency study shows that the impact of paper bags on climate change over their entire life cycle is 70% lower than that of plastic bags.
How is paper printing environmentally friendly compared to other materials?
We all know paper is a renewable resource when forests are responsibly managed. That’s why today, printing productions such as notebooks, packing boxes, and shopping bags can be reused multiple times. Paper naturally breaks down and is biodegradable. Printed paper can be composted, while other materials often end up in landfills.
Let’s make a comparison. In the natural environment, printed products can be decomposed within 3-6 months, and even if they become garbage, they cause less soil and water pollution. Forest management certified by FSC can achieve sustainable logging, and the waste paper recycling rate is as high as 65%-80% (EU data), forming a “planting – use – recycling – regeneration” cycle chain. But degradation requires hundreds of years, microplastics will enter the food chain, threatening ecology and human health (global average intake is about 5 grams of microplastics per week per person, according to WWF research).
As plastics break down, they release harmful chemicals and microplastics into rivers, lakes, and oceans. These pollutants not only endanger marine life but also infiltrate the water we drink and the food we eat. Protecting clean water starts with reducing plastic at the source. Sustainable packaging and responsible printing choices are part of the solution.
The plastic production will harm the animals around us. Due to ineffective handling, countless animals mistake plastic for food or become entangled in it, suffering in silence from a problem they didn’t create. We advise sustainable materials and eco-friendly printing to reduce harm, protect ecosystems, and build a cleaner future for all living beings. Sustainability isn’t just about products — it’s about every life we touch.
