Torraspapel purchases 86 percent certified pulp in 2009

Torraspapel, part of the Lecta Group, significantly increased the purchase of pulp sourced from certified forest plantations, reaching 86 percent in the year 2009. The remaining 14 percent came from controlled sources accepted by the certifications themselves. In this way, the company has advanced, and even surpassed, the objective set out in its 2008 Environmental Report of 70 percent in the purchase of certified pulp for 2010.  

Torraspapel guarantees the sustainable origin of the wood it uses to manufacture its products and can document that this wood comes only from legal and uncontroversial sources, all either certified or controlled. Proof of this is the securing of multi-site PEFC and FSC chain-of-custody certifications for all of its operations and product lines.
