We've got some exciting news to share - Summit Labels has just introduced a new sustainable label stock called Forest Film. This innovative plastic label solution is made from 100% wood-based raw materials. It's a renewable material originating from sustainably managed forests, making it the perfect choice to take a big step towards sustainability.    Our team is committed to sustainability, and Forest Film is a shining example of our dedication to the cause. Here are just a few of the reasons we’re excited about our new sustainable label stock:  1. **It performs just like traditional white BOPP **— Forest Film isn’t just eco-friendly, it’s identical in quality and performance to fossil-based PP films. No sacrificing quality, here.  2. **It’s ISCC-certified**** **— Forest Film is ISCC-certified, meaning that it can help you reduce your carbon footprint while looking like a total boss.  3. **Sustainability is a priority for consumers** — Adding a note about sustainability to your labels is a great way to share your environmentally responsible practices with your audience. Want to take it a step further? There are a few key elements in making your labels as sustainable as possible: the film itself, the liner, and the adhesive.  Happily, we have options for you that work in conjunction with Forest Film!  - Go with either a Forest Stewardship Council-certified or 90% post-consumer waste liner.  - Opt for our PET wash-off adhesive, keeping your labels sustainable, through and through.    ![kazuend-19SC2oaVZW0-unsplash](https://blog.summitlabels.ca/hs-fs/hubfs/kazuend-19SC2oaVZW0-unsplash.jpg?width=500&height=333&name=kazuend-19SC2oaVZW0-unsplash.jpg) It's All In The Numbers Switching to Forest Film not only makes a difference by reducing plastic waste — it also significantly reduces your carbon footprint. Here are some mind-blowing stats to consider:   1. **Primary energy demand:** Using Forest Film, you can **reduce primary energy demand by 9%**. That's equivalent to powering a typical household for 5 years!  2. **Water consumption:** Switching to Forest Film can **reduce blue water consumption by 14%.** That's like saving 107 10-minute showers!  3. **CO2 emissions: **When you consider the global warming potential of Forest Film, you're **reducing CO2 emissions by 21%.** That's like taking 14 long-haul flights (one passenger)!  4. **Biogenic carbon:** When you factor in biogenic carbon, which is carbon absorbed by trees during their growth, the **reduction in CO2 emissions jumps to 45%.** That's the amount it would take to fuel 30 long-haul flights!  *Stats above are compared to a mid-size brand using 4,000,000 traditional fossil fuel-based 4"x6" labels.   ![luca-bravo-ESkw2ayO2As-unsplash](https://blog.summitlabels.ca/hs-fs/hubfs/luca-bravo-ESkw2ayO2As-unsplash.jpg?width=500&height=345&name=luca-bravo-ESkw2ayO2As-unsplash.jpg) Environmentally conscious label materials have made huge leaps forward and we’re buzzing at the thought of all the possibilities.     The** next step** is to [**get in touch**](mailto:hello@summitlabels.ca) so we can connect you to one of our Label Specialists in your area.
