Sustainability
Together for a sustainable future
At Buitelaar Packaging, we are committed to a sustainable future. We are aware of our key role in preserving the environment and the well-being of society.
Our philosophy is simple. It starts with our organization, with our own values. Start local, think global; we say it for good reason. We developed our sustainability label especially for this purpose. This comprises the 4 principles for a sustainable future: people, earth, wood and profit.

Taking people into account
We apply proactive policies regarding dignity, labor rights, participation and equality. In addition, we create development opportunities to learn the language and understand our culture. Encouraging employees to increase their skills and knowledge is a natural part of doing business for us.
In the area of workplace safety, we maintain clear and understandable protocols.
Environmental responsibility in our operations
We believe in the power of change and the role that our organization plays in the future of our planet. We start local and think global. That means that every day, we work on realizing our vision for a more sustainable future. Together, we are building a world where economic growth and environmental responsibility go hand in hand.
100% biodegradable
With PEFC certification, we guarantee that at least 70% of the wood comes from sustainably managed forests. The certifications we achieved attest to our commitment to responsibly handle sustainable forest management and natural resources.
Additionally, we established an active policy for processing waste wood into biomass.
Sustainable value creation
Buitelaar Packaging focuses on sustainable value creation. This value creation ultimately leads to a result that we can use to better serve our customers and create further growth for the organization. It also helps us to keep raising the bar with regard to our social impact.
This enables us to conduct business in a forward-looking manner, securing a positive perspective for the organization, its stakeholders and the impact on the environment.
