To help protect the future of our forests, all our papers and boards are certified by the FSC® (Forest Stewardship Council).
​
We ensure the FSC® label is printed on the back of your cards and finished products. The label is a strong message to your customers that you are committed to preventing deforestation and promoting the heath of forests worldwide.
100% of Ling Charity cards, envelopes and packaging are
environmentally conscious.
​
To communicate your range can be disposed of in an environmentally conscious way we include the following logos on the back of your cards and packaging.
All finishes used are fully recyclable and flitter free.
​
Only environmentally friendly inks and water based varnishes are used for your cards and packaging.
Foil on your cards is less than 2.5 microns thick enabling the finish to disintegrate within the recycling process which ensures your cards are 100% recyclable.
The retail packaging on all supplementary products is plastic free
and recyclable.
​
While we look to continue reducing our own waste we are also considerate of the waste implications of your charity and supporters, evaluating where waste can be reduced or removed and making suggestions of alternative
packaging solutions.
