Environmental Group Identifies Dollco as Leader

For Immediate Release
Wednesday, April 20, 2011

Canopy, the environmental organization that protects forests, released a new printer leadership list to promote the use of papers that are Ancient Forest Friendly (AFF).  Canopy identifies Dollco as a company with an AFF paper procurement policy. 

According to Canopy, Ancient Forest Friendly papers represent the highest ecological qualities in the paper industry. An AFF paper must either contain 100% post-consumer recycled fibre, and/or must be Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certified and must not contain fibre originating from endangered forests.  

Dollco collaborated with Canopy to adopt a paper procurement policy committing the company to buy papers that do not come from ancient or endangered forests. This means Dollco customers have a secure and cost-effective supply of AFF stocks for magazines and product marketing collateral. It also means that the company actively promotes the use of these stocks.
