MOD-PAC Earns C-o-C Certifications

MOD-PAC Corp., Buffalo, N.Y., USA, a producer of paperboard packaging and folding cartons and a provider of print products, reported this week that it has earned chain of-custody (CoC) certification from both the Sustainable Forestry Initiative (SFI) and the Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification (PEFC) for its Buffalo paperboard packaging facility.

Additionally, MOD-PAC's Buffalo facility has been certified to the SFI fiber sourcing procurement requirements that require program participants to show that the raw material in their supply chain comes from legal and responsible sources, whether the forests are certified or not.

"This combination of certifications provides our customers with the highest degree of confidence and flexibility for them to provide chain-of-custody or fiber sourcing claims while demonstrating our corporate commitment to the sustainability of our planet," said Daniel G. Keane, president and CEO of MOD-PAC CORP
