Sustainability at the Heart of Inventronics: The Importance of FSC Certification in Packaging

In an era where sustainability has become a top priority, Inventronics is proudly committed to making a difference. A fundamental part of our commitment to a greener future is choosing to collaborate with suppliers who share our vision, such as the Italian company Ondulkart.

A Sustainable Partner for Quality Packaging
Ondulkart is a recognized player in the corrugated cardboard packaging sector, known for its dedication to sustainable production practices. For the Treviso plant, Ondulkart supplies Inventronics Italy with packaging boxes ensuring not only the quality and durability of the product but also respect for the environment, which includes also the use of water-based inks for printing. Their choice to adhere to FSC certification is a testament to their commitment to sustainable production.

What is FSC Certification?
FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) certification is an international mark that guarantees products come from responsibly managed forests. This means that the forests are supervised to preserve biodiversity, support local communities, and ensure long-term economic benefits.

FSC offers various certification schemes that consider not only the origin and traceability of the product but also the percentage of recycled material used. This allows Ondulkart to choose the certification level that best suits the specific needs of their products and customers, always ensuring the highest environmental standards.

Alternatives and FSC Choice
Ondulkart has chosen FSC certification over others, such as PEFC (Program for the Endorsement of Forest Certification), because FSC is internationally recognized and sets global standards for forest management. While PEFC acknowledges national schemes, FSC offers greater visibility and global recognition.

The Path to Certification
Ondulkart obtained FSC certification in 2012, demonstrating a long-term commitment to sustainability. The certification requires a rigorous and voluntary process that can take months or years, with material traceability as a key requirement. This ensures that every stage of production, from the forest to the end user, meets FSC criteria.

Traceability and Sustainability Policy
One of the fundamental aspects of FSC certification is material traceability, which allows the origins of the forests to be traced. This aligns with Ondulkart’s corporate culture, which has always prioritized environmental issues, even when they were not as central to public debate. Transparency and commitment to sustainability are core values for Ondulkart and are integral to their market success and reputation.

Conclusion
At Inventronics, we believe every choice matters. Our collaboration with Ondulkart and our commitment to selecting suppliers with FSC certification are clear signals of our desire to operate responsibly and sustainably. We invite our customers and partners to join us on this journey toward a greener future by choosing products and suppliers that respect the environment.
Together, we are Building a Brighter Future.
