Catalyst Paper has named International Paper its supplier of the year.
Catalyst’s Paper Recycling Division, has presented the award annually since 1998. Suppliers are evaluated on the quality of the paper they provide, service efficiency, timely response and their reliability and flexibility in terms of shipping.
This is the first time that IP has received the award. Headquartered in Burlington, ON, the company has been shipping recovered newspapers to Catalyst from North Vancouver, Surrey, Nanaimo, Victoria and Courtenay/Comox since 1991.
In addition to receiving clean, locally recovered paper, Catalyst has benefited environmentally and financially from IP’s service as well. “In the last few years our suppliers have spent millions on the latest sorting and separating equipment,” said Tom Fawcett, paper recycling division general manager. “That means we receive clean paper, which has helped us cut shipments to landfills by 20%, reduces wear and tear in our mill and results in better quality pulp.”
