Arctic Paper has observed this year’s World Book & Copyright Day for the sixth year through a series of local activities in the company’s various markets.
With the World Book & Copyright Day, UNESCO is focusing its attention on the continuing major significance of books with regard to education, and especially for education efforts in developing countries.
Authors, librarians, publishers, teachers, private institutions, the mass media and humanitarian NGOs cooperate with UNESCO every year in celebrating World Book & Copyright Day. Arctic Paper, Europe's second largest producer of bulk book paper, would also like to observe the day. For that reason, within Arctic Paper’s various markets, there will be local initiatives that will take place prior to and on World Book & Copyright Day.The book culture as we know it is dependent on the printed medium. Within Arctic Paper, we believe in and work for the book as a medium. We do this by providing a broad and advanced selection of paper, specially developed by taking into consideration the varying needs that many types of authors, publishers, designers and artists may have - everything from the simple paperback to the beautifully-designed gift or art book.
Within Arctic Paper, environmental aspects are driving factors for paper development that are increasingly important to customers.
"Today, more and more people keep environmental aspects in mind with everything they do. At Arctic Paper we were ahead in our lifecycle and environmental thinking and it is important for us to be able to offer FSC and PEFC certified paper with sustainable forestry as a starting point," says Hans Karlander, sales and marketing manager at Arctic Paper.
