Signing of a commercial partnership with our chemical pulp supplier De Eendragt Alliancell

In June 2023, the European Parliament adopted the European Union Deforestation Regulation (EUDR), which aims to prohibit the placing on the EU market or the export from it of products that have contributed to deforestation or forest degradation.

This regulation will come into force on December 30, 2025, for SMEs like La Rochette Cartonboard.

In this context, we are pleased to announce the signing of a commercial partnership with our chemical pulp supplier De Eendragt Alliancell, which has developed an EUDR management solution for its clients using the Supply Logica tool. This 2-year partnership demonstrates our commitment to complying with this regulation and strengthening our dedication to sustainable forest management.

This initiative also reflects our ambition “Towards New Summits”: to become a high-performing and sustainable long-term partner! 🌲
