Use of bio-energy by the paper and board industries means that they are less carbon intensive, since bio-energy accounts for over half of their energy use. The paper based industries are at the forefront of improvements in carbon dioxide reduction, renewable energy and energy efficiency.
Look out for the next edition of Pro Carton’s e-news and the Infographic which will tell the story of water use in the paper and board industry.
