Forest Products

VS&Co is committed to consistently improving the traceability and impact of our materials, including the procurement of pulp, paper, packaging, and fabrics to prevent widespread deforestation and conserve Ancient and Endangered Forests. As part of this work, we partner with Canopy, a nonprofit advancing forest conservation in the supply chain. Read our Forest and Paper policy here.

Paper

To help reduce the footprint of the paper and packaging we use, VS&Co:

• Seeks out paper use efficiencies to reduce paper and packaging basis weights.
• Sources paper/packaging with recycled content, specifically post-consumer waste content.
• Encourages our suppliers to continuously improve and expand the availability of recycled content in    papers/packaging.
• Continues to explore packaging and paper from alternative fibers such as wheat straw or other agricultural residues, and those that have been processed utilizing technologies such as chlorine free bleaching.
• Supports research and development of commercial scale production of pulp, paper and packaging from alternative fiber sources such as wheat straw, and other alternative fibers.
