Through our partnership with PrintReleaf, Xerox customers have the opportunity to contribute to the reforestation of global forests and reduce their overall sustainability footprint. Based on a theme of “You print one, we’ll plant one,” paper usage reporting is used to equate the number of trees that are reforested into geographic areas of need.

We apply stringent paper sourcing guidelines for companies that provide paper to Xerox for resale. The requirements cover all aspects of papermaking, from forest management to production of finished goods. When possible, we supply papers that comply with 3rd party sustainable forest management standards, including Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) and Program for the Endorsement of Forest Certification (PEFC). In the limited situations where certified papers are not available, Xerox works with suppliers to assure comparable principles are being followed. Efficient Use of Paper We recognize our obligation to responsibly source paper and enable efficient paper use and are committed to the goal of a paper supply chain with zero deforestation. Our strategy begins upstream with the fiber source and continues to processing and manufacturing, through use and end-of-life. We utilize a multi-pronged approach through partnerships with our customer and suppliers and other stakeholders, including non-government organizations (NGOs), government agencies and academia. Our long-term goal is to support a sustainable paper cycle and minimize environmental impacts while meeting our customers’ exacting business needs.
