Environmental
Management

In order to minimize any environmental effects of producing products, Samwha Paper will sustainably implement
environmental management by following environmental regulations for the entire process from the development
of the product to disposal.

Before Paper Production
All our papers are FSC® certified. We protect forests, do not use illegally cut timber,
and support eco-friendly global afforestation activities.
We also protect the earth by using Post-Consumer waste.
During Paper Production
All types of energy usage such as power, steam, and dye at each production step are controlled
under our measurement system. All types of chemicals safely guaranteed through
the external audit are used in paper production. The wastewater generated during
the production process is recycled back into the next paper production cycle. Also, it is purified and discharged to the local stream.
Samwha Paper strictly manages the carbon emission program according to the government’s
standards and is one of the few companies selected by the government as a green manufacturer
After Paper Production
Our production utilizes scrap papers generated from paper production.
Also, the sludge generated through the wastewater treatment system are used as green soil raw material. Green soil is our social environment work. It is a company activity making grass grow in places under difficult conditions for plants
to grow. Samwha Paper produces green soils' raw materials from sludge formed by the precipitation of suspended solids in the
factory's wastewater to help restore nature.

Samwha Paper will always strive to make a sustainable society where everyone coexists together
by fulfilling social responsibilities and roles by carrying out various sharing activities and putting endless efforts
