ICMA is pursuing the 100% Recycled Shiny & Kind project
An increasingly extensive range of papers with recycled bases, made using environmentally friendly techniques, thus reducing its use of virgin cellulose pulp while preserving the beauty and uniqueness of its products.
The new papers are Gold 1425 and Silver 1431: 100% recycled, certified with FSC Recycled Credit, and recyclable. They will be available in stock in both smooth and embossed form, even in small quantities.
These two papers are manufactured without chlorine and optical bleaching, and those with natural brown verso are not deinked. The production process is integrated: recycled cellulose pulp is used directly as the raw material for batches, without intermediate steps, thus saving energy and water and reducing CO2 emissions.
Icma is a B Corp® !
As of May 2020, after surmounting a long and thorough assessment process, Icma has become part of the B Corp® group, a global movement involving companies that want to make their contribution to historic cultural change to protect the environment and favor social development.
Being a Benefit Corporation means voluntarily committing to a journey of continuous improvement concerning environmental impact, the wellbeing of employees, the active role in the community to which the company belongs, but also to the general mission of the company, including ethics, responsibilities, and transparency; all of this while maintaining the nature of an organization that pursues economic goals.
