Embracing FSC and SFI
Clampitt Paper, of Dallas, is another merchant that has fully embraced FSC. According to Don Clampitt, the company brought in a consultant, educated the sales force and now runs seminars about sustainable paper for designers and end users. The firm has also acted as a facilitator for printers, with the results showing that the number of FSC-certified printers in the Dallas-Fort Worth area grew from three to 13 in the past eight months, and Clampitt is now the “go to” merchant in the area.
