May 17, 2010. /Lesprom Network/. Tetra Pak will introduce aseptic cartons bearing the label of the Forest Stewardship Council™ (FSC) in China beginning July this year, company said in a statement received by Lesprom Network. The first Tetra Pak cartons with FSC labels in China will be available in three carton formats: Tetra Fino™ Aseptic, Tetra Prisma® Aseptic and Tetra Brik™ Aseptic. It is expected that Tetra Pak cartons with FSC labels will reach 2 billion in 2010 in China alone, with a goal of reaching 14 billion FSC-labelled Tetra Pak packages sold in China in 2011. Since the introduction of the world’s first FSC-labelled liquid food cartons in the UK in 2007, Tetra Pak has introduced FSC-labelled cartons in several markets around the globe, with the total number exceeding 2.3 billion in 2009. “Tetra Pak is committed to sustainable development and is working together with suppliers, customers, consumers and NGOs to create a green chain from the upper stream all the way down to the end user,” said Hudson Lee, President of Tetra Pak China. “We are working hard to support responsible forest management and certification in China, building a convenient platform for consumers to be able to support environmental protection and participate in low-carbon activities by teaming up.” The FSC label guarantees that the wood fibres in the package are traceable all the way through the supply chain back to the forest and that the paperboard used in the package comes from FSC-certified forests and other controlled sources.
