Paper has been around for more than 2000 years and continues to play an important role in the environmental, economic and social health of our country and our planet. It’s made from one of the few truly renewable resources on earth, is used in countless products that make our daily lives better, and supports hundreds of thousands of jobs in the United States alone. Papermaking is a resource-intensive business and at Verso, it’s our challenge to use these resources – trees from responsibly managed forests, energy, water and chemicals – as efficiently as possible and to assure we don’t harm the environment along the way. That’s the core of our sustainability philosophy … making the products our customers want and need while leaving the smallest footprint possible behind. We integrate this philosophy into all that we do and use continuous improvement as the gauge to measure our progress.
