Eco-friendly paper products are more than just a trend — they’re a smart business decision. As more Canadian companies look to reduce their environmental impact, switching to sustainable alternatives is an easy way to make a difference. From BPA-free receipts to compostable takeout containers, here are three paper-based products from C-Pac that help your business stay eco-conscious without compromising performance.
1. Eco-Friendly Thermal Receipt Paper
Thermal paper is a must-have in retail and hospitality, but traditional rolls often contain harmful chemicals like BPA or BPS. C-Pac proudly offers EcoChit thermal receipt paper, which is 100% free of all phenols, including BPA and BPS. These receipts are safe to touch, recyclable, and still provide sharp, clear prints that hold up over time.
By choosing EcoChit, you’re giving your customers safer receipts while helping to reduce your business’s chemical waste footprint.
2. Recycled Photocopy Paper
Need high-quality office paper that’s easy on the environment? Recycled photocopy paper offers the performance of traditional copy paper but with a much lower environmental cost. Brands like Hammermill and Norpac provide recycled options that feature bright whiteness and a smooth finish, making them perfect for all your printing needs.
Switching to recycled copy paper is one of the simplest and most effective ways to cut down on deforestation and support sustainable forestry practices.
3. Eco-Friendly Restaurant Take-Out Containers
Restaurants generate a lot of waste — especially from takeout orders. C-Pac’s line of eco-friendly take-out containers includes options made from compostable sugarcane, recyclable polypropylene, and recycled paperboard. These containers are sturdy, attractive, and functional, while also designed to break down in commercial composting facilities or recycling streams.
Whether you’re serving burgers, pasta, or salads, you can deliver great food while minimizing your environmental impact.
Why Eco-Friendly Paper Products Matter
Choosing sustainable paper products isn’t just about looking good to customers — it’s about reducing landfill waste, lowering your carbon footprint, and supporting healthier workplaces. Small switches like these can make a big difference over time, especially in high-usage industries like food service, retail, and administration.
At C-Pac, we make it easy to find paper products that are good for your business and the planet.
