The environmental non-government organization Canopy recently
published "North America's 2013 Green Print Leadership Report," an
important and original reference work for the print market.
Canopy's report recognizes the leading role TC Transcontinental
plays among major North American printers through its effort and
commitment towards sustainable development initiatives.
Canopy based its ranking on a survey of the corporate
environmental and sustainability practices of 36 printers. It named
TC Transcontinental the Leader in the category of "100,000 tons of
paper or more per year" due to the Corporation's strong paper
purchasing policy and practical implementation, transparent
reporting of sustainable development and active engagement to
support forest conservation solutions.
"We are proud of this public recognition from an organization we
admire," said Francois Olivier, President and Chief Executive
Officer of TC Transcontinental. "It is clear that our success is
the result of team work and that we will continue to maintain our
commitment to sustainability. We will accomplish this by
prioritizing our four pillars - customers, employees, shareholders
and communities - who, are the most important to us, given the
current context in which we operate and the future longevity of the
Corporation."
TC Transcontinental introduced its first environmental policy
more than 20 years ago and pursues it sustainability efforts
unabated. It has won many awards for responsible corporate
citizenship, including being named one of Canada's Best 50
Corporate Citizens in 2013 and receiving Canopy's Ancient Forest
Friendly Award in 2012. Furthermore, the Corporation is currently
reviewing its three-year sustainability plan and will be revealing
it in early 2014.
