The American Forest & Paper Association is celebrating the 63rd annual National Forest Products Week.
Throughout this week, AF&PA will highlight the industry’s sustainability leadership and paper recycling achievements within the circular economy. The forest products industry is also among the largest manufacturing industries in America.
“During National Forest Products Week, we recognize the 925,000 people from the forest products industry who make sustainable products for a more sustainable future,” said Heidi Brock, President and CEO, AF&PA. “These are people who make innovative paper and wood products, made from renewable resources and used by millions of Americans daily.”
The paper and wood products industry is committed to sustainability success and resource efficiency throughout the production process. Industry innovations are also creating more sustainable and recyclable products, like paper padded mailers and pizza boxes.
AF&PA is proud to work with the Paper and Packaging Caucus on our mutual goal of securing a more sustainable future. “AF&PA recognizes the support of the Paper and Packaging Caucus including our co-chairs: Congressman Dan Newhouse (R-WA), Congressman Lou Correa (D-CA), Senator John Boozman (R–AR) and Senator Debbie Stabenow (D–MI). This bipartisan caucus focuses on finding policy solutions to support our industry’s long-term sustainability achievements,” Brock said.
