When it comes to packaging, kraft paper has seen remarkable growth in recent years. Clayrton’s offers a wide range of colours and designs, all printed on PEFC-certified paper, a certification we obtained in 2009.

We chose PEFC certification because it covers the largest forest area in the world and is firmly established across the European market.

The PEFC label was created to help combat deforestation and protect forest ecosystems, while supporting a sustainable wood resource. By carefully selecting the wood used to produce the paper for our packaging, we are committed to preserving biodiversity and avoiding the depletion of our planet’s natural resources.

PEFC also helps protect the economic and social interests of local forest owners, operators and all stakeholders across the wood industry.

In 2019, our PEFC-certified paper consumption represented the equivalent of 18 hectares of plantation, or around 26 football pitches. For us, it was essential that this entire area be managed responsibly and sustainably.

Water-based ink since 2007

By printing with water-based inks, Clayrton’s reduces its annual CO₂ emissions by 18 tonnes, equivalent to the yearly mileage of its entire sales team.

IMPRIM'VERT FROM 2011

Following the switch to water-based inks and the elimination of solvent-based products from its inks, the company took a broader approach to rethinking its printing facility and obtained the Imprim’Vert certification in 2011.
