Sustainability

How is the use of cardboard reconciled with environmental sustainability, considering that it comes from trees? +

This question allows us to dispel a common misconception. Today, most corrugated cardboard comes from recycled paper, not directly from trees. Italy, in particular, is among the European leaders in paper collection and recycling, with rates exceeding 80%. This means that most of the cardboard we use has already been recycled multiple times.

Regarding the necessary virgin raw material, certifications like FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) ensure it comes from sustainably managed forests. These certifications guarantee that for every tree cut down, new ones are planted, maintaining forest balance.

Here's why corrugated cardboard is one of the most sustainable materials for packaging and displays:
1. High recyclability: As mentioned, over 80% of corrugated cardboard in Europe is recycled, drastically reducing the need for virgin raw material.
2. Renewable resources: When virgin raw material is used, it comes from responsibly managed forests.
3. CO2 absorption: Trees in managed forests absorb carbon dioxide, helping to mitigate climate change.
4. Biodegradability: Unlike many synthetic materials, cardboard is naturally biodegradable.
5. Energy efficiency: Cardboard production, especially from recycled material, requires less energy compared to many alternatives.

At Rewave, we are committed to pushing these sustainability principles even further:
- We use a significant percentage of recycled fibers in our production.
- We only collaborate with certified suppliers to ensure raw material sustainability.
- We invest in research and development to optimize fiber use and reduce waste.
- We work closely with customers to create solutions that maximize sustainability at every stage of the product lifecycle.

By choosing Rewave, our customers not only get a functional and aesthetically pleasing product but actively contribute to a more circular and sustainable economy, supporting responsible recycling and forest management practices.



What certifications do your products have? +

At Rewave, we are committed to ensuring our products and processes meet high standards of quality and sustainability. Our certifications are not just recognition of our commitment but also a guarantee of transparency and reliability for our customers. Here are our main certifications:

1. FSC (Forest Stewardship Council): This certification ensures that virgin raw materials come from responsibly managed forests. We offer products with FSC 100%, FSC Mix, and FSC Recycled certification, depending on specific customer requirements.

2. RESY: This certification guarantees the recyclability of our corrugated cardboard packaging, ensuring that it can be easily reintroduced into the production cycle.

3. ISO 9001: This certification attests to our commitment to an effective quality management system, ensuring standardized processes oriented toward customer satisfaction.

4. Food Contact Certification: For products intended for food contact, we hold the necessary certifications that guarantee safety and compliance with European regulations.

It's important to note that specific certifications may vary depending on the product and customer requirements. Our team is available to discuss your specific needs and provide all necessary certification documentation.

Furthermore, we are constantly seeking new certifications and standards that can further demonstrate our commitment to sustainability and product quality.


How does Rewave implement sustainability in its processes? +

At Rewave, we interpret sustainability holistically, going beyond just environmental aspects to embrace the social and ethical dimensions of our operations. Our commitment covers the entire sphere of corporate responsibility, and for this reason, we rely on EcoVadis assessment, an independent body that evaluates companies on multiple aspects of sustainability.

The EcoVadis assessment examines four key areas:
1. Environment: We constantly evaluate and reduce our environmental impact, from the use of recycled materials to energy efficiency in our production processes.
2. Labor practices and human rights: We guarantee fair and safe working conditions, promote diversity and inclusion, and strictly respect workers' rights.
3. Ethics: We adhere to high ethical standards in all our business operations, from transparency in business practices to fighting corruption.
4. Sustainable procurement: We collaborate with suppliers who share our sustainability values, promoting responsible practices throughout the supply chain.

Through the EcoVadis score, we not only evaluate our performance in these areas but engage in a continuous improvement process. This approach allows us to:
- Identify areas for improvement in all aspects of sustainability
- Establish measurable goals and monitor our progress
- Provide our customers with verifiable guarantees of our commitment to sustainability

Our commitment goes beyond mere compliance: we aim for excellence in every aspect of sustainability. This translates into tangible benefits not only for the environment but also for our employees, business partners, and the communities where we operate.

We are always open to discussing our approach to sustainability with customers and collaborating to find solutions that align your sustainability goals with ours.



How can your products be properly disposed of after use? +

The proper disposal of our products after use is a fundamental part of our commitment to sustainability. It's important to note that current law requires all packaging to include disposal instructions and identification codes for each material used. This significantly facilitates the recycling process for the end consumer.

Regarding our products:
1. Packaging:
- Follow the disposal instructions directly printed on the packaging
- Present identification codes help identify materials for appropriate recycling
2. Displays:
- Proper disposal of displays is heavily influenced by their design
- Displays made only of cardboard: can be easily disposed of in paper and cardboard recycling
- Displays with mixed materials: require component separation before disposal

It's important to emphasize that at Rewave, we strive to design displays using only cardboard when possible to simplify the disposal process. When mixed materials are necessary, we provide clear instructions for separating and properly disposing of each component.

General disposal tips:
1. Component separation:
- For complex products, separate various materials (cardboard, plastic, metal) and dispose of them in their respective recycling containers
2. Cleaning:
- Ensure products are free of residue before disposal
3. Compaction:
- Flatten boxes and packaging to optimize space in collection containers
4. Upcycling:
- When possible, we encourage creative reuse before recycling

It's crucial to note that poorly designed displays, composed of materials difficult to separate, risk being disposed of in general waste, compromising raw material recovery. For this reason, at Rewave, we place great attention on the design phase, aiming to create easily recyclable products.

Disposal regulations can vary locally, so we always recommend checking your area's guidelines.
Our team is available to provide specific disposal advice, especially for more complex solutions.

By choosing Rewave, you not only get high-quality products but also contribute to a more circular and sustainable economy.
