For the second time in a row, PAPSTAR GmbH and PAPSTAR Österreich Vertriebs AG have passed the official re-validation procedure for "GREEN BRAND" and have been awarded the "Germany 2022/2023" and "Austria 2022/2023" seal of approval.

The GREEN-BRAND seal of approval is a protected certification mark of the European Union for ecological sustainability with an independent, transparent and neutral test procedure. In order to become a GREEN BRAND and receive the seal of approval, a three-stage process that is unique worldwide was developed. Nomination, validation - the catalog of criteria comes from a scientific sustainability institute - and the final jury decision.

Only those who verifiably practice ecological sustainability are awarded the GREEN BRAND and receive the seal of quality for two years. Thus, consumers also have a reliable guide to ecologically sustainable companies, products and services.

Improvement of around 20 percent

"Overall, PAPSTAR was able to improve by around 20 percent within four years, which - compared to the more than 650 validations that have now been carried out - is outstanding!", says Norbert R. Lux.
