The
Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) has recognised Tetra Pak for selling
over 100 million FSC-certified packages in only one year since it
launched the
world's first FSC labelled
food and liquid carton. The FSC mixed sources label printed on each carton offers assurance to consumers that the
packaging material comes from responsibly managed forests and controlled sources.
The Tetra Recart package was the first package from Tetra Pak to be
labelled with the FSC logo on supermarket shelves in Sainsbury's stores
in the UK. In 2008, Tetra Pak expanded its sales of FSC labelled
cartons to
Italy,
Denmark,
Braziland the US and they include such packages as the Tetra Brik® Aseptic.
Continued growth is expected in 2009. Several Tetra Pak paperboard
suppliers have FSC chain of custody certification. The certification of
Tetra Pak's converting plants has started and in some markets it has
completed the entire supply chain from the forest to the supermarket
shelf.
