Copy papers with a focus on sustainable production
Copy papers with a focus on sustainable production
Copy paper is a staple of everyday life in most offices and many homes. But with the increasing focus on sustainability, it has become more important to choose paper that takes the environment into account – both in production and in use. In this article, we take a closer look at what you should consider when choosing copy paper with sustainability in mind, and how you can find products that combine high quality with responsible production.
The article presents a selection of copy papers that represent different qualities, environmental labels and price ranges. The aim is to provide an overview of the most important features and differences, so you can more easily find the paper that suits your needs. The information about the products is based on publicly available descriptions from manufacturers and retailers and is summarised to provide an informative and neutral overview.
Factors to consider when buying copy paper
When choosing copy paper, it’s not just about price and whiteness. There are several factors that can affect both quality, environmental impact and usability.
1. Environmental labels and certifications
Look for labels such as FSC®, PEFC™ and the EU Ecolabel. These guarantee that the paper comes from sustainable forestry and is produced under environmentally friendly conditions. A certified paper is a safe choice if you want to reduce your company’s environmental footprint.
2. Paper quality and grammage
The grammage (measured in g/m²) affects both print quality and feel. Standard paper typically weighs 80 g/m², while thicker variants of 90–100 g/m² give a more exclusive impression. For everyday use, standard paper is often sufficient, while presentations and reports can benefit from a higher weight.
3. Whiteness and surface
The whiteness of the paper affects contrast and colour reproduction. Very white paper is well suited for colour printing, while more natural white paper can give a softer look and is often less environmentally burdensome. The surface – smooth or matte – also affects how the ink is distributed and how quickly the paper dries.
4. Recycled paper versus virgin fibre paper
Recycled paper is made from already used paper and requires fewer resources than virgin fibre paper. Modern recycled papers often have the same quality as regular paper and can be used in most printers. However, some prefer virgin fibre paper for special purposes where colour reproduction and durability are crucial.
5. Price and area of use
The price depends on quality, environmental labelling and grammage. Consider where the paper will be used – for internal documents, customer materials or archiving – and then choose the appropriate quality. A sustainable choice can often pay off in the long run, both economically and environmentally.

Frequently asked questions
What do FSC® and PEFC™ mean?
Both certifications ensure that the paper comes from responsibly managed forests that take into account the environment, animals and people. They are good indicators of sustainable production.
Can recycled paper be used in all printers?
Yes, modern recycled papers are compatible with most printers. However, it’s a good idea to choose a variant specifically labelled for laser or inkjet printers, depending on your equipment.
What is the difference between whiteness and brightness?
Whiteness describes the paper’s reflection of light across the entire spectrum, while brightness measures the reflection of blue light. Paper with high whiteness provides sharper contrasts but can appear cooler in tone.
How should copy paper be stored?
Paper should be stored dry and at room temperature. Avoid moisture and direct sunlight, as this can affect the paper’s quality and lead to paper jams in the printer.
Is sustainable paper more expensive?
The price may be slightly higher, but the difference is often minimal. Moreover, environmentally certified paper contributes to a better reputation and can be part of a company’s green profile.
