Graphic Packaging International

Since establishing a formal sustainability program in 2008, Graphic Packaging has made significant progress. Our product portfolio emphasizes renewable and recycled materials. We utilize essentially all the wood that comes into our virgin paperboard mills, either to manufacture paperboard or to produce power through biomass. At our coated unbleached kraft (CUK) and solid bleached sulfate (SBS) mills, we generate most of our electricity from renewable energy sources and send excess energy (where available) back to the local power grid. Virtually all our paperboard products are recyclable, and for those that aren’t widely accepted, we make great efforts to collaborate with external stakeholders — including our customers and suppliers — to find innovative solutions to recapture the valuable fiber to make new products. We are witnessing unparalleled changes in our industry and on our planet. We understand that consumers are more frequently insisting that products — and the packaging that protects them — come from a company they trust and reflects their values.
