Environment
Raw material choice is a core focus for Favini. In particular, we guarantee that the pulps processed in our paper production are sourced from carefully managed and controlled forests.
FSC
Products carrying the FSC label are certified to assure consumers that they come from forests that are managed to meet the social,
economic and ecological needs of present and future generations.
FSC certification ensures the control of the chain taken by raw materials from the forest to the consumer, including all stages of processing, transformation, manufacturing and distribution.
Our certified graphic papers include:

Favini patented Shiro Alga Carta and its manufacturing process. Shiro Alga Carta is a unique ecological paper produced from the algal
blooms that grow at summers end in the Venice lagoon damaging the fragile ecosystem of this special maritime area.
Doing so we re-use material that otherwise would be polluting and also difficult to dispose of. At the same time we save pulp because it is partially replaced and recycled using waste material.
The result is a high quality paper with unique features such as visible algae particles that makes paper whiten with age thanks to the inclusion of chlorophyll.
Besides alga used to produce paper, Favini can also offer a wide range of ecological papers manufactured with residuals from fruit processing - lemons, apple, orange, wine, maize - and if you have a particular idea in mind, please let us try it for you - we are all Tutti Frutti!

Shiro - the Favini range of ecological papers - includes Shiro Tree Free, which is a paper manufactured with fibres coming from renewable annual crops such as bamboo,
cotton linters and bagasse (from sugar cane crushing). This paper has no FSC certification because it has no forest material included.
Favini uses post-consumer waste previously de-inked as well as pulp from well-managed and controlled forests.
Our care for the environment is underlined by the choice of FSC certified de-inked pulps; Shiro Echo contains
indeed up 75% post consumer recycled waste.
We also use a lot of pre consumer waste such as the edgings and other wastes coming from the manufacture and converting processes which are sorted for reuse in our colour cycles.
