1 Beyond Recycles Green is IN We hope this information never appear in print unless it is on our paper.

2 INSIGHT Everyday choices for an office can make a huge difference in the future of global health, as well as economic and social benefits. Considering computers, printers, copiers, and faxes, office equipment is an enormous energy expenditure. Offices literally use tons and tons of paper, and there are effortless ways to use much less; for example relying on electronic copies instead of printing, single spacing what is printed, and simply using both sides of a piece of paper. Paper Consumption Malaysia consumes about 380,000 tonnes of paper annually (The Star, 2009). The amount of consumption had been increased to approximately 1,200,000 tonnes in billion sheets of paper are used annually for personal computers. The average web user prints 28 pages daily.

3 Recycling 1 short ton (0.91 t) of paper saves 17 mature trees, 7 thousand gallons (26 m 3 ) of water, 3 cubic yards (2.3 m 3 ) of landfill space, 2 barrels of oil (84 US gal or 320 l), and 4,100 kilowatt-hours (15 GJ) of electricity enough energy to power the average home for six months. Decomposition of 1 ton of paper in landfills produces methane, a greenhouse gas with 21 times the heat-trapping power of carbon dioxide (CO 2 ).

5 OUR SOLUTIONS Paper Mate is proud to provide an entire product line of solutions offering fresh thinking in recycled products. You can live greener in everyday writing with the Paper Mate quality you can trust. The same quality offer with a more responsible use. Point size available: Fine 0.7mm This a brilliantly calculated move by Canon, to say the least. The company has launched the world s very first completely recycled calculator and is showing the world that its green intent is not an advertising gimmick but a real concern towards the planet s future by doing all it can to promote this green gadget. It is nice to see a concept as important as recycling being given such a prominence while design a product as unique as this. Canon Marketing (Malaysia), has unveiled its Environmental Series Calculator, the world s first recycled calculators as part of its initiatives to advocate business process efficiency that protects the environment. The Environmental Series Calculator is built based on Canon s green product plan which consists of 5Rs: Recycle the materials and resources Reduce use of new resources and resort to eco-conscious design Reuse the product life cycle Respond to environment and human impact by improvising on material use Reliable brand recognition Discarded machines are recycled and the material is used to manufacture this new series of calculators hence avoiding utilization of new resources. Even the packaging, labels and manuals for these series are derived from recycled paper, making this product a wholly recycled unit.

6 MYTHS vs FACTS Recycled paper jams copiers. Today's recycled copier paper is high quality and technically perfected for use in copiers. If the paper jams in a copier, it is not because of the recycled content. It may be that the ream sat opened for a long time and absorbed moisture. Sometimes people use paper that's not formulated for copiers and then wonder why it jams. Use paper qualified as "high-speed" for high speed copiers. The machine may need cleaning or adjusting. Try another brand of recycled paper, just as you'd try another brand of virgin paper. Making recycled paper is environmentally damaging. Recycled paper production saves trees, energy and water, produces less pollution, uses more benign chemicals, and requires less bleaching than virgin paper production. It also solves a community disposal problem. The only area in which recycled paper creates more disposal materials is in the greater amount of sludge produced than virgin papermaking. But the problem materials that fall into recycled paper sludge would otherwise have been scattered throughout landfills or concentrated in incinerator emissions or ash. Recycling mill sludge becomes an environmentally preferable way of handling potentially toxic materials such as inks and additives. The sludge of many recycling mills tests non-toxic. Sludge that tests hazardous can be disposed of by an environmentally controlled method.

7 TARGET Federal government agencies are encouraged to make environmentally-friendly office supply purchases. In addition, the majority of states have enacted similar legislation for their governmental agencies. This legislative requirement for environmentally-friendly products has created a huge market for Paper Green. Corporate companies that are interested in the purchase of environmentally-friendly supplies because of a decision by management and belief reasons or as part of a Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) program that communicates to their customers that the business is committed to the environment and makes procurements based on environmental factors.

8 THE SMARTER CHOICE Many of us take for granted that paper allows us not only to enjoy our lives but also to go about our daily routines with greater efficiency. From the thinnest tissue, to the most absorbent diaper, to the toughest corrugated box. Today, we recognize the limits of resource demand and the necessity for environmentally sustainable production systems. That's why recycled paper is a critical part of our vision for a healthy global environment. 100% recycled paper requires no trees to produce. Trees left standing pull carbon out of the air, a process called carbon sequestration, which is one way to reduce the impact of industrial CO 2 emissions. Aren t recycled products are more expensive? In the past, recycled papers often cost considerably more than virgin papers. Today, many grades such as text and cover (often used for letterhead, brochures and publications) and some coated papers are cost-competitive with virgin papers or even cost less. Copier and offset papers still tend to cost somewhat more, but the price differentials are smaller than ever, usually only a few percent. Therefore, drop us a call and we will personally come to your office and demonstrate the quality. We help you to eliminate the intangible cost of being guilty of printing documents on virgin papers, and allow you to use the paper at your own will. But just make sure it is a recycled paper. Save the trees, be responsible to our Mother Earth.
