Here are some of the papers which have higher recycled content or have travelled a lesser distance.
Look for products with an Environmental Choice NZ license (EC-26-07 Office Paper and Stationery) or other third-party audited life cycle ecolabel, or can show that they meet similar criteria.
[eg, Good Environmental Choice (Australia), Nordic Swan, EU Flower or Blue Angel (Europe), EcoMark (Japan).
EMS labels such as ISO 14001, EMAS, or EnviroMark are not equivalent, as they do not demonstrate impact reduction.]
TCF represents paper made with totally chlorine-free pulp, and ECF means chlorine dioxide, not elemental chlorine, has been used.
