Sustainable Development Goals
SDG 7 – sustainable energy
At Palcut, we work with SDG 7, which is about ensuring access to reliable, sustainable and affordable energy for all. Sustainable energy is essential to reduce carbon emissions and minimize our climate impact. By integrating sustainable energy solutions into our operations, we support both our business goals and the SDGs.
Target 7.3 – improving energy efficiency
Our main focus is to optimize energy consumption during the production of our paper. We are constantly working to find new ways to optimize our energy use, with a particular focus on optimizing our production machinery in terms of saving power, minimizing waste, increasing efficiency, etc. Here, our carbon calculator plays a key role in identifying energy-efficient solutions to improve overall energy efficiency.
Our objective is to become even better at optimizing our production and reducing the consumption of raw materials and auxiliary products by 2030.
SDG 12 – responsible consumption and production
At Palcut, we work with SDG 12 by striving to promote responsible consumption and production. This goal is central to reducing climate and environmental impact, minimizing waste, optimizing resource use and reducing carbon emissions through a circular economy.
Target 12.5 – substantially reduce waste
With our core product, anti-slip paper, our main focus is on reducing waste and promoting responsible consumption of paper resources. Our commitment to a circular economy plays a central role in this endeavour, and we have implemented various initiatives to achieve this target.
Overall, the initiatives are about sorting, recycling, reusing and reducing waste, and ensuring that our resources are used responsibly across the organisation. Our objective is to continue optimizing production processes and to further reduce the consumption of raw materials and auxiliary products by 2030.
SDG 15 – life on land
At Palcut, we work with UN SDG 15 by offering paper products that support sustainable forest management. By purchasing FSC-certified recycled paper, we ensure that we use our resources responsibly. That is why SDG 15 is a natural part of our climate responsibility and our efforts to care for the Earth’s ecosystems.
Target 15.2 – end deforestation and restore degraded forests
All our paper is FSC certified; 95% is recycled and only 5% made from virgin fibre. By prioritising recycled paper, we reduce the need to cut down trees while reducing our climate impact. After processing, our paper products can also be recycled, promoting a circular economy.
We are proud to contribute to a more sustainable future by ensuring that our paper resources are managed responsibly and recycled efficiently.
