Take climate action with RAFNXT+
A lower-carbon alternative for efficient labeling
Global challenges and consumer demand call for immediate climate actions and well-informed choices. To help businesses answer these challenges, we have created the RAFNXT+ labeling material range. The range includes labeling solutions designed for a variety of packaging in fast-moving consumer goods, retail, logistics, wine, and spirits.
RAFNXT+ paper label materials are FSC™ certified (FSC C012530). These paper raw materials are made of material from well-managed FSC-certified forests, recycled materials, and other controlled sources.
UPM Label Life
Our life cycle assessment (LCA) service is comprehensive, credible and actionable.
- The LCA calculation principles were critically reviewed according to ISO 14040/44/67, and the process of generating LCIA results was validated externally.
- Cradle-to-grave models are broken down into cradle-to-gate, transport to customer, printing, and end-of-life impacts.
- Focus on carbon, water and energy, extended to include indicators as recommended by the Product Environmental Footprint (PEF) guide.
