Meet Russell the spruce & discover a part of his life and dreams. He is the protagonist of EUROSAC’s latest film.
Russell
lives in a sustainably managed forest, absorbs CO2 and releases O2
thanks to photosynthesis and is thus part of a carbon absorbing value
chain. During his manufacture to become an industrial kraft paper sack
he will have a low fossil carbon footprint and will continue to store
carbon during his lifetime.
As a fiber based packaging, Russell is
part of a bio-based economy. Russell is anxious to be a multiwall paper
bag for not only is he the best alternative and a most efficient
packaging solution, he will also be made of close to 100% natural &
renewable fibers. Not to mention that once his career is done, as he is
made of kraft paper, he will represent a valuable source of fiber for
the recycling industry or will be used to produce energy.
