Recycled Paper Key to Hitting Sustainability Targets, Antalis Tells Dealers

With sustainability once again under the spotlight amid mounting pressure on businesses to go ‘plastic-free’, Antalis has revealed that this presents a fantastic opportunity for dealers to advocate and upsell recycled paper options to their customers, including Antalis’ Xerox® Recycled range.

Amid the Government’s recently announced plans to eliminate all avoidable plastic waste by 2043, the case for businesses to adopt recycled paper options has never been stronger, reinforced by consumers increasingly favouring companies that care about the environment.

Luckily, thanks to improvements in technology, a greater range of greener paper options are now available that don’t compromise on quality, performance, appearance or whiteness. Take the Xerox Recycled range available at Antalis, for example, made from 100% recycled fibres, all while ensuring a premium feel and finish.

Tim Percival, Divisional Director at Antalis Office, said: “With an increasing onus on UK businesses to demonstrate their green credentials, paper is actually one of the few truly sustainable products; Xerox Recycled is 100% Post Consumer Waste (PCW) and Blue Angel Certified. De-inked without beaching and free from optical brightening agents (OBA) which is ideal for everyday printing, it is also available in pastel tints like blue, green, pink and yellow.

“As such, dealers are well place to recommend their customers opt for recycled paper options as a way to put another foot forward on the path to sustainability.”

Antalis has developed its own Green Star System which rates each paper with a star according to its environmental performance.
