Corporate sustainability certificates, policies and statements

Please Note: GCF is in the process of transitioning to its own company policies. The information on this page currently reflects legacy International Paper policies, which remain in effect until further notice. Fiber certificates found at the bottom of the page include both legacy IP and new GCF certifications during the transition period.

 

At International Paper, we know that our reputation and success depend on the decisions we make and the actions we take. We embed sustainability throughout the organization with sound governance structures and policies that represent our values and support the long-term well-being of our forests, communities and the environment — guided by our environmental sustainability policy.

On this page, you’ll find the policies, statements, and certificates that demonstrate how we operationalize our environmental sustainability policy. Our FSC® PEFC and SFI® chain of custody certifications enable customers to request different types of certified packaging. These resources complement our corporate sustainability policy and help procurement and quality teams confirm policy compliance for sustainability across regions. Together, they provide a clear, consistent view of our certified packaging capabilities and the standards that underpin them, including assurance and traceability. Ask your business relationship manager about FSC Certified packaging or SFI Certified packaging options.
