Premier Celebrates Environmental Milestone with the Woodland Trust

Premier Paper Group Limited (headquartered in Birmingham, U.K.; hereinafter "Premier"), a consolidated subsidiary of Japan Pulp & Paper Co., Ltd. (Head Office: Tokyo, Japan; Representative Director, President & CEO: Akihiko Watanabe) and leading supplier of paper, paperboard and packaging materials to the UK market, – announced in November 2024 that its flagship environmental program, Carbon Capture®, had achieved a remarkable milestone, with GBP 2 million donated to the Woodland Trust, the UK’s largest woodland conservation charity. This support has funded the planting of 519,132 trees across the UK, which have the potential to capture an estimated 119,869 tonnes of CO2 over the trees’ lifetime. Through this partnership, Premier champions its customers to make meaningful contributions to carbon reduction, certifying them as Carbon Capture® companies while supporting the creation, restoration, and protection of native UK woodlands.

Premier’s Carbon Capture® initiative provides customers with a practical way to mitigate the environmental impact of their activities. By calculating their CO2 emissions from product purchases, customers can reduce their environmental impact by supporting tree planting projects under the UK Woodland Carbon Code, a government-accredited programme that ensures measurable and long-term carbon mitigation.

Premier’s Carbon Capture® initiative began in 2011 and has grown to become the UK market’s leading environmental initiative, surpassing GBP 1 million in contributions by 2019, with all funds directed solely to the Woodland Trust to fuel reforestation efforts across the UK. This latest milestone reflects the impact of Premier’s collaboration with its customers to achieve real environmental results.

By supporting Carbon Capture®, Premier and its customers are contributing to a low-carbon future while enhancing biodiversity and supporting ecosystems through native woodland creation. Premier remains committed to corporate environmental responsibility, offering businesses a transparent and impactful program to create measurable, lasting environmental change.
