Now we offer the opportunity for customers to choose also CarbonNeutral® certified RAFNXT+ labels. This is one of our initiatives to respond to customer needs in e-commerce and supply chain packaging, combining high efficiencies and low carbon impact. We look forward to working together for a sustainable future!” says Sally Dai, Paper Laminates Manager at UPM Raflatac, NOA.
