BRCGS Packaging Materials Global Standard
The BRCGS Packaging Materials Global Standard helps us demonstrate we are providing products that are quality assured, legally compliant, and authentic. The first to be recognised by the Global Food Safety Initiative (GFSI), BRCGS Packaging Materials has become the global industry benchmark. It is not only used by food packaging producers but also by producers of packaging for all applications, across the supply chain. Our BRCGS certification demonstrates our commitment to producing safe, high quality packaging for the consumer.

The Forest Stewardship Council® (FSC®)
The Forest Stewardship Council® (FSC®) promotes environmentally appropriate, socially beneficial, and economically viable management of the world's forests. FSC® runs a global forest certification system with two key components: Forest Management and Chain of Custody. The FSC® system allows businesses and consumers to identify, purchase and use carton board products made with materials from well managed forests and/or recycled sources. FSC®'s “tick tree” logo is used to indicate that products are certified under the FSC® system. We are audited every year to ensure we meet the high standards required to enable ourselves and our customers to use the FSC® logo on cartons.

The Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification (PEFC)
The Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification (PEFC), is a leading global alliance of national forest certification systems. PEFC works throughout the entire forest supply chain to promote good practice in the forest and to ensure that forest based products are produced with respect for the highest ecological, social and ethical standards. Using the PEFC logo on cartons demonstrates that the carton board material being used comes from legal and sustainable sources. We are audited every year to ensure we meet the high standards required to enable ourselves and our customers to use the PEFC logo on cartons.
