Reich Paper has achieved FSC® certification for CT, SHINE, ODEON and DIGITAL product lines (except SAVOY Digital which is made from cotton and AVEO which is made from sugar cane stalks, otherwise known as Bagasse). These product lines are recyclable, biodegradable, acid free and elemental chlorine free.


AVEO:  AVEO (A Very Environmental Offering) is made from 90% sugar cane stalk which is left over from the production of sugar. The balance 10% is made of a combination of linen and hemp, which are both byproducts of the textile industry. All of the raw material used to make AVEO would otherwise end up in a landfill or would be burned.

SAVOY is tree free and made from 100% recovered cotton from the textile industry that would otherwise end up in a landfill. And since cotton is naturally brighter white than wood, the cotton paper making process requires less bleach and other chemicals than  papers made from wood. It also requires far less water processing and far less energy. SAVOY is archival, acid free, recyclable, biodegradable, and elemental chlorine free.
