With sustainability once again under the spotlight amid mounting pressure on businesses to go ‘plastic-free’, Antalis has revealed that this presents an opportunity for dealers to advocate and upsell recycled paper options to their customers, including Antalis’ Xerox Recycled range. 

Amid the Government’s recently announced plans to eliminate all avoidable plastic waste by 2043, the case for businesses to adopt recycled paper options has never been stronger, reinforced by consumers increasingly favouring companies that care about the environment.

According to Antalis, improvements in technology has meant that a greater range of greener paper options are now available that don’t compromise on quality, performance, appearance or whiteness. The Xerox Recycled range, available at Antalis, comes in FSC certified options and is made from 100 per cent recycled fibres, all while ensuring a premium feel and finish.

Tim Percival, Divisional Director at Antalis Office said, “with an increasing onus on UK businesses to demonstrate their green credentials, paper is actually one of the few truly sustainable products; 70% of it is recyclable, it can be recycled up to seven times and, once its lifecycle is complete, it is fully bio-degradable. 

“As such, dealers are well place to recommend their customers opt for recycled paper options such as the Xerox Recycled range where possible as a way to put another foot forward on the path to sustainability.”

Antalis has also developed its own Green Star System which rates each paper with a star according to its environmental performance.
