MATERIAL GUIDES
INNOVATION IN PAPER
In this section, we take a look at the raw fibres used to create paper, packaging and viscose and the impact they are having on our planet from deforestation, chemical usage through to alternative plant-based and cellulose sources that, if handled correctly, can help alleviate the pressures we are placing on our natural habitats and our home.
This section is part of a series of sourcing guides and material index’s that RawAssembly puts together for its members to help them make responsible decisions and choices around raw material and product selection within their supply chains.

They want to be ambitious with their commitment to stewarding the earth – going past the idea of neutrality and to lessen the amount of carbon in the atmosphere than when they started.
