Issue 16 of The Page is now available

Welcome to the 16th issue of The Page, the magazine produced by Two Sides to promote the sustainability and value of print.

This hard-hitting issue discusses and provided examples of the great communication deception. False claims that digital communication is better for the environment than paper are on the increase. Something that isn’t set to change as the country comes out of lockdown.

You’ll also discover findings from a Two Sides report, in which the scale of paper’s environmental perception problem is laid bare, when in fact the print and paper industry has a great environmental story to tell.

Of course, there are also our regular sections such as ‘Fresh Thinking’, a round-up of fantastic print case studies, which includes a 100% recyclable and compostable container to maintain temperatures of -20C to -70C for temperature-sensitive vaccines.

So, wherever you are, whatever you are doing, take some time to relax and read the latest about Two Sides and the medium it is working hard to promote. Please share this issue with friends, colleagues and anyone else interested in the value of paper for a sustainable world.
