At Rose Calendars we have recognised the importance of taking a more environmentally aware route in our business and undertaken a number of initiatives to reassure customers that the calendars they are purchasing are eco friendly.
Recycled Papers
A number of designs within our 2009 range are printed on recycled paper, this may not be immediately obvious when looking at the samples as there is very little difference between the new paper and our standard papers. Recent developments in paper manufacturing now mean the latest recycled papers have a much better appearance than previously.
Sustainable Source Paper
All our pictorial and commercial wall calendars, excluding the recycled ones, are produced using paper from sustainable sources. This means the mills we purchase the paper from are FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) certified and encourage management of forestry resources in an environmentally responsible, socially beneficial and economically viable way.
Recycled Mailers
All our mailing cartons are now being produced using recycled board and to highlight this fact our ‘Recycled’ logo is being embossed onto the reverse of the carton.
Recyclability
Recycling the calendar after its use is just as important as using recycled materials.

Rose have taken the step of ensuring every pictorial calendar includes recycling instructions, shown on the reverse of December’s leaf, which we hope will encourage all of our customers to recycle them so the paper may be re-used again in the following years range.
