Caring for the Environment

At OPC we produce many millions of greeting cards and envelopes per year, so it’s important we take an environmentally responsible attitude to the paper we use.

There are many misleading claims made on the back of greeting cards, such as : “from sustainable forests” and “one tree planted for every tree cut down” which are meaningless. FSC accreditation is the only respected international standard in use and in August 2007, after testing several materials, we became one of the first UK publishers to switch all greeting card board to FSC accredited stock.

We have also switched all of our envelopes to FSC accredited paper.
