Green credentials
Progress Presss is very aware of the fact that the planet we inhabit requires ever more care and vigilance in the way its resources are used and in what is put back into the environment.

As of January 2009, Progress Press is proud to have attained FSC certification, in line with our company's policy to minimise the impact of our operations on the environment, with particular focus to worldwide forests.
FSC is a third party certification scheme intended to show commitment to follow strict procedures in relation to chain of custody of paper and other forest related products. FSC chain of custody ensures material traceability from well managed forests to the paper used in the final end product, with the ultimate aim of reducing and hopefully eliminating the illegal logging of trees.
Each FSC certified company is given a chain of custody number. In the case of Progress Press, our COC number is
TT-COC-002799.
The FSC products relevant to our company are inserted in a single product group ranging from paper to board products. We offer various material categories, namely: FSC 100%, FSC Mix %, FSC Mix Credit, FSC Recycled % and FSC Recycled Credit as per customer or supplier specification, and also various product classes, namely: P7 and P8. Our chosen control system is that of transfer.
We welcome requests for quotations using FSC materials and invite you to contact our Noel Galea to this effect.
