The mill was handed the ‘Environmental Award of the Economy 2021’ by the Society for Study and Development of the Economy in Schleswig-Holstein in Germany.
The judging panel praised the paper for its green qualities, highlighting in particular how it can be recycled via the waste paper cycle and thus makes an innovative contribution to waste avoidance and sustainability.
This environmental award has been presented annually since 1984.
“We are pleased about this high number of award winners, which is proof of the importance of environmental protection in our companies,” Society chairman Philipp Murmann says.
“The example of Mitsubishi HiTec Paper in Flensburg, with its development and production of environmentally friendly paper-based packaging material for foodstuffs, is proof of the high innovative strength of our economy.”
