EU Eco-Label

Established in 1992 by the European Commission, the EU Eco-Label is a voluntary ecolabel scheme that was developed by various scientists, NGOs and stakeholders to develop a transparent way to allow consumers to make environmentally responsible choices. The EU Eco-label aims to certify products whose manufacturing processes help to reduce their environmental impacts across the entire lifecycle of the product. Currently, Domtar's Windsor, Quebec Mill carries this product designation for selectA4 grades produced at the mill.
