TC Transcontinental Broadens Scope of its Paper Purchasing Policy

Out of a wish to be transparent and to make customers and consumers more aware of high-conservation value forest and responsible forest management, TC Transcontinental now plans, for instance, to systematically place the chain-of-custody logo on all TC Media publications. The organization will now also include messages to encourage consumers to recycle its products, aiming to increase the availability of paper containing recycled postconsumer fibre. The first steps in this direction and initial measures to ensure all of its publications display the certified paper logo have already been implemented. TC Transcontinental also reviewed the procurement standards for its photocopiers, printers, official documents, etc., to ensure that papers from recycled or certified sources are used.
