What Quality Standards Does PAPSTAR Meet?

The processed tissue products are FSC®-certified, and the products bear both the Keimling and Nordic Swan Ecolabel to confirm that the materials used are compostable. The FSC seal, issued by DIN CERTCO, indicates that the raw materials used in each PAPSTAR product originate from responsible forest management, with traceability guaranteed by a test number.

What are PAPSTAR's Key Product Lines?

PAPSTAR offers the ROYAL and DAILY Collection as its own labels, providing high-quality serviettes, tablecloths and table runners with quality, functionality and modern design. The company introduced its "pure" product line in 2008, setting an early course for converting the range towards products made from renewable raw materials and successively increasing their product share.
