Lessebo Paper is proud to unveil its latest environmental figures for Lessebo Recycled 1.3 and Lessebo Recycled 1.5, premium recycled paper qualities launched to meet the highest standards of sustainability. With carbon emissions as low as 7.81 kg CO2 per ton of paper, measured according to the Paper Profile standard, these products boast some of the lowest carbon footprints in the paper industry.

Lessebo Recycled 1.3 and Lessebo Recycled 1.5 is specifically developed for high-quality printing projects, including packaging applications, books and other printed materials that demand an environmentally conscious approach. These uncoated, recycled paper qualities are FSC® Recycled certified (license code FSC-C021923), ensuring responsible sourcing and adherence to the highest sustainability standards.

While both products share the same exceptional environmental performance, the key difference lies in their bulk properties, offering options tailored to diverse printing needs. Lessebo Recycled 1.3 is available in 100gsm, 115gsm, and 130gsm as standard, with other grammages available upon request. Lessebo Recycled 1.5 is stocked in 80gsm up until 350gsm, making it versatile for various applications.

“At Lessebo Paper, we believe sustainability should never come at the cost of quality,” said Jens Olson, CEO at Lessebo Paper. “With Lessebo Recycled 1.3 and 1.5, we’re delivering products that not only meet the highest standards for recycled paper but also set a record for one of the lowest carbon emissions in the industry. This is a testament to our ongoing commitment to innovation and environmental responsibility.”

The record-breaking figure of 7.81 kg CO2 per ton highlights Lessebo Paper’s dedication to reducing its environmental impact. As global demand for sustainable solutions continues to grow, Lessebo Recycled 1.3 and Lessebo Recycled 1.5 represent a step forward in meeting the needs of businesses and individuals seeking recycled alternatives without compromising on performance or aesthetics.
