Australian Paper. Creating a Tonne of Value
Your specification of locally made paper contributes
significantly to Australia's social, economic and environmental
future and wellbeing.
For every tonne of Australian Paper that you specify, you can
receive an independently assured statement of impact
against triple bottom line metrics that are consistent with the
Global Reporting Initiative (GRI). Through our Tonne of Value
Australian Paper can thus provide you with a reportable and
credible triple bottom line paper account. Your decision to choose
Australian made paper helps take risk out of your supply chain and
shows your key stakeholders that you are a responsible
organisation. One that aligns values with responsible actions,
which can be shared with all stakeholders.
Report with confidence.
Now you can report with confidence your paper consumption
impact. For every tonne of Australian made paper you purchase,
there is a helping contribution to Australia's triple bottom line.
If you adhere to GRI reporting methods, produce an annual
sustainability report and use metrics to support your
sustainability journey, then specifying Australian made paper will
align with your goals. Not only can your paper choice help provide
a Tonne of Value for Australia's triple bottom line, but also
yours.
Two years in development
Australian Paper Chief Executive Officer Jim Henneberry said the
program was built on the understanding that sustainability
indicators for the paper industry were intrinsically complicated,
confusing and lacked global standards - but were nonetheless
critical for customers, staff and other stakeholders. "We are
seeking to balance the many needs of multiple stakeholders.
Providing independently reviewed metrics that track and report our
key activities is a credible way to achieve that balance," Mr
Henneberry said.
Developing the program included extensive internal and external
consultation, detailed independent third-party evaluation and a
rigorous assessment and frank acceptance of the actions Australian
Paper must take, and the information it must communicate.
