What drove you to obtain PEFC Certification?
We are the market leaders in the production of home and industrially compostable packaging.
Within our compostable packaging, we use wood pulp-based products. As a result, we needed to ensure that the materials we buy are from sustainably managed forests.
To do this we felt that it was imperative that we were part of the sustainable chain of custody.

How have you found the process with Interface?
