ENVIRONMENTAL PAPER ASSESSMENT TOOL (EPAT)
HOW GREEN IS YOUR
PAPER SUPPLY CHAIN?
Ensuring a sustainable paper supply chain is a big deal to us. To help us accomplish this task, we use the Environmental Paper Assessment Tool (EPAT). With this tool, we can track and monitor the environmental footprint of our paper products. We use EPAT data to monitor our suppliers’ environmental performance and metrics and help our customers make environmentally informed purchase decisions.
HOW EPAT WORKS
By providing a consistent framework and over 30 standard metrics, EPAT creates the opportunity for informed discussion about the environmental attributes and trade-offs involved in paper purchasing decisions. EPAT is managed by Sustainable Paper Group Inc. and was developed in the early 2000s by a working group of leading paper buyers and suppliers.
