Cutters are machines designed for the precise and automated cutting of semi-finished reels. These systems allow large reels of tape to be converted into specific sizes and formats required by customers for packaging purposes or other applications.

The cutting of the reels by the cutters is the final stage in the production of adhesive tape, before the product is packed into boxes for shipping.

 
How exactly does it work?
The raw materials are loaded into the machine: the reel of semi-finished product and the sleeves. The latter are the central support normally made of cardboard onto which the tape is wound to form the roll.

The cutter has a dual function: it cuts the reel into strips of tape of different widths and simultaneously winds them onto the single sleeve for a set length.

When requested by the customer, a tab can be applied to the tape, i.e. that mark at the start of the roll that provides easy access to open the product. The tab is usually made of white plastic, or sometimes paper, measures 19 mm and is applied before the cutting stage.

 
How many types of cutting can there be?
Depending on the possibilities and equipment, the cutters can guarantee 3 types of cut: pressure, blade, scissor.

Let us go into more detail about the individual cuts.

Pressure cutting or ‘easy tear’ allows the ‘easy cut’ effect to be applied to the tape. The cut is not neat and leaves an edge that is slightly frayed, not perceptible to the human eye. These are micro-cuts that do not weaken the tape but create points that facilitate the onset of manual tearing

The blade cut is the most common cut. Thin blades are inserted into the machines, allowing the material to be split. It is a precise cut but not always perfectly linear like a scissor cut because the blades can have micro vibrations. Moreover, it is not able to cut less standard materials.

The scissor cut (used for adhesive tapes and masking tape) is the best cut in terms of precision because it is made by a rotating metal blade against a counter-blade. This ensures an extremely straight cut and allows any type of material to be cut.

 
The packroll effect
Also inside the cutters, a pressure effect can be applied to the product, making the roll more compact and silent. This process is called ‘packroll’.

The packroll technique involves inserting presses inside the cutter that compress the roll in a radial direction during winding. The pressure that is applied to the product can be variable, so that the tape can be more or less compact.

The packroll accelerates the elimination of air between the tape coils: the roll looks better and unwinding is even quieter. This is useful in those contexts where reduced unwinding noise, when using the tape, is even more important.

 
Safety and cutting, issues that go hand in hand
Of course, the issue of cutting machine safety is a priority. The cutters are equipped with the latest active and passive safety systems such as protective covers, sensors and emergency stop systems, both in the event of faults and malfunctioning, to ensure maximum protection of the people working on these machines.

Once the product has been cut to the desired size and length, the rolls come out of the cutter on a conveyor belt to the packaging system.

The adhesive tape cutting phase is a crucial stage in our production process where attention, precision, detail, and technology are crucial to the success of the end result and the specific request of the individual customer.

How and where does tamper evident tape fit into the market?

Security is a crucial element in an increasingly interconnected world, where goods travel through global transport networks to reach destinations all over the world. This importance extends far beyond mere compliance with laws and regulations. This is precisely why we believe it is increasingly crucial to ensure the integrity of assets and, consequently, the trust of our customers.

One of the tools for ensuring that packaging arrives intact is the FABO tamper-evident tape with which we can ship goods and objects.

This is a security device specially designed to seal packages and shipments so that they cannot be opened or tampered with without leaving obvious marks. This product is a security solution that serves to protect the integrity of the contents of parcels and to immediately highlight any attempt at unauthorised access.

The product we are talking about is a biaxially oriented polyester tape (PET), with an acrylic-based adhesive, thus completely solvent-free, with silent unrolling (useful for limiting acoustic annoyance caused by long-term use).

But compared to a normal tape there is more, because it can contain a tamper-evident message that works as a kind of anti-theft device in the event of opening.

 
How exactly does it work?
Operation is very simple and straightforward, making it a quick and cost-effective security solution.

The tamper-proof alert is applied to the substrate by means of flexographic printing, which imprints itself on the application surface via a release system. If the package or wrapping is tampered with, an alert message will appear on their surface, testifying to an attempted break-in.

Normally this ribbon is recognisable precisely by its colour, usually red or in strong colours, that means that its function can be visually understood.

In our product range, in addition to tamper evident tape, we also offer labels with the exact same function, but for small packages and parcels.

 
What are the main features of this product?
Thanks to our customisation capabilities, we can print this ribbon in several colours, while our in-house graphics department can also customise the message to be written inside.

What’s more, thanks to our in-house production, we can also supply different sizes, lengths and dimensions according to our customer’s requirements.

This product could also have an important communicative function, if we think for instance of the e-commerce market, where a customer might find a nice message once he opens the package of his or her favourite brand.

But wait, there’s more: the tamper-evident labels we mentioned above can also become a unique and personal protective seal with printed logos and images, QR codes, web addresses and social channels, bar codes, progressive serial numbers.

 
Which markets is it targeting?
Tamper-evident tape is a tape that can be used in several markets, depending on the importance of the goods being shipped. Certainly the e-commerce market is one of the most involved at this juncture, considering the importance of the goods being shipped, with the luxury market in particular in mind. But the pharmaceutical market is also a market of interest for this product, often taking into account the importance and rarity of certain medicines that are shipped. Not least is the food market where packaging is often tampered with and where safety must be maximised considering people’s health.

On a more smaller scale, tamper-evident tape is a very useful product in the dispatch of documents of a certain importance and confidentiality, where labels are often used in addition to tape, which perhaps represent a smarter and faster product.

Labels could also be a valuable tool for the entire catering industry using home delivery services, as they would be a seal of assurance that the food being brought home is delivered in perfect condition.

In conclusion, for us, tamper-evident tape is an essential tool for improving security, protecting assets and products, preventing unauthorised access, and detecting tampering attempts at an early stage.

This tool is versatile and can be adapted to a wide range of business applications to ensure that company assets are protected and that customers can trust the security of products and shipments.

Sustainability in the adhesive tape market
For several years now, one of the issues most frequently addressed by companies, citizens and institutions has been sustainability.

Etymologically deriving from the Latin verb ‘sustĭneo, sustinēre’, meaning to resist, to last but also to sustain, to support, to bear, to protect and to nourish, today it has taken on an even stronger and broader meaning, embracing every aspect of everyone’s life: from the environmental to the political sphere, from the productive to the social, the concept of sustainability is approached with the common goal of improving existing conditions.

Due to the constant focus on the topic, the world is becoming increasingly aware of the importance of sustainability, and companies are looking for innovative ways to reduce their environmental and social impact.

Perhaps not everyone knows, but 50 years ago our company was founded by launching a completely sustainable product: gummed paper. It was a paper product with a (non-food) maize starch adhesive that is activated by contact with water. Do you remember the concept of the old stamps? It worked exactly the same way.

This choice of ours, innovative and futuristic at the time, and our desire to create products that are sustainable in both production and environmental terms, have always been rooted in our culture.

However, there are still many solvent-based products on the market today. These are adhesive tapes where the adhesive that is smeared on the product is processed through the use of solvents. Let’s try to better understand what it is and what the impacts are.
What are the risks in the production of solvent-based adhesive tapes?
The first adhesive tapes produced were on PVC backing and with solvent adhesive. This procedure, however, has always been quite risky.

The production of solvent-based adhesive tapes can involve various forms of hazards due to the use of hazardous chemicals and the industrial processes involved both for companies and workers, and for the environment.

Firstly, because the plants have a certain degree of danger as the solvent is a flammable material, but not only that. Furthermore, to process the solvent, there must be very good residue recovery facilities, because the risk is that small traces of solvent remain on the adhesive tape. It goes without saying that this represents a risk for the end user. (Let us not forget that we very often use our mouths to cut tape quickly).

Working with solvent-based adhesives today is a double risk for the manufacturer and the consumer, because this process requires considerable safety controls (often absent) and because the materials used can be very harmful to health and the environment.
The transition from solvent to solvent-free
The transition to safer and more environmentally friendly alternatives, through solvent-free technologies, can actually help to significantly reduce the hazardousness associated with adhesive tape production, as well as significantly limit the overall environmental impact of manufacturing operations.

But how can a high quality standard be guaranteed while replacing a basic element in the production process?

We did this by supporting and implementing production through two solvent-free technologies, the water-based acrylic to which we added hot melt.

In the first one, it is being used an acrylic polymer in water dispersion, while for the second one solid raw materials (synthetic rubbers and hydrocarbon resins) are melted together at very high temperatures without using any solvents. Both technologies meet the request to find a valid and efficient alternative to the traditional solvent-based tapes.

What must be clear is that acrylic and hot melt technology have qualitatively the same results as solvent technology. There are no differences in product quality, there are differences in sustainable choices between those who, like us, choose not to use solvents in production and those who choose otherwise.

The solvent-free choice is one we have made for many years now with the desire to differentiate ourselves in the market and to create a sustainable line in both environmental and production terms. For over 40 years, we have invested in this choice with awareness, security and innovation.

We believe this is a step in the right direction towards a more environmentally conscious world, where technology and ecology come together for the good of the planet and all of us.

In the modern corporate landscape, ensuring the health and well-being of employees has become a priority for companies oriented towards long-term sustainable success. FABO, a pioneering company in the manufacturing sector, is demonstrating how the integration of company projects can create an effective synergy between health and productivity, thanks to the support and expertise of professionals such as Dr Lara Callarelli.

The SIA (‘Salute In Azienda’ meaning Health in the Company) Project is rooted in this vision.

 
Health and well-being in the company: an indisputable necessity
The concept of health and well-being in the company is no longer just a trend, but an inescapable and indisputable necessity. Companies that invest in the health of their employees and collaborators experience a significant competitive advantage, because a healthy team means higher productivity, less sick leave and a cohesive corporate culture.

 
The fundamental role of massage therapy
One of the main pillars of this integrated philosophy is massage therapy, a discipline that combines therapeutic massage with joint mobilisation and muscle stimulation techniques. This practice aims to:

relax muscles, eliminate tension, areas of retraction and movement dysfunctions,
improve blood circulation,
promote the production of chemical mediators that reduce stress.

In the corporate environment, massage therapy can help reduce tension and anxiety, fostering an atmosphere of well-being in the workplace.

 
Posturology and kinesiology: balance for health and well-being
Further key elements include posturology and kinesiology.

While posturology focuses on correcting posture, ensuring optimal interaction of the body with gravity and correcting potential unfavourable and/or skeleton-damaging postures, kinesiology analyses body movements to identify abnormal motor patterns and encourage efficient adaptation of these patterns, respecting joint angles.

In the work environment, where employees often spend many hours sitting or standing, these approaches become crucial in mitigating the onset of musculoskeletal and postural discomfort. This is why it is important to work in the direction of physical well-being.

It is therefore the integration of these disciplines that helps improve posture and balance, reducing the risk of work-related pain and injuries.

 
Lara Callarelli, catalyst of the SIA project
The role of Lara Callarelli is an essential catalyst in this well-being project. With a degree in Exercise and Sport Sciences, a Master’s degree in Clinical Posturology and specific training in Massage and Manual Therapy, Lara is the professional chosen by FABO to promote physical well-being in the company (a true symbol of expertise and dedication to promoting physical health).

Lara has perfected her expertise in corrective and postural exercise, adapting it to a diverse audience, from children to adults, from athletes to senior citizens. As the founder of a training company in motor sciences, she has consistently invested in continuing education, enhancing skills and competences and developing individual work protocols based on detailed analyses of each individual’s physical functioning.

 
The future of corporate well-being
FABO has recognised the importance of uniting these disciplines in an integrated corporate health and well-being project: the SIA (Health in the Company) project. In collaboration with Lara Callarelli, the company is developing a programme combining massage therapy, posturology and kinesiology to improve the health and well-being of its employees.

Each employee can book personalised sessions with the doctor, who will be at in the company twice a month. In this context, each individual can receive targeted treatments to address his or her specific needs.

This project not only highlights FABO’s commitment to employee well-being, but also demonstrates the potential of integrating physical health practices into the corporate environment. While Lara Callarelli is at the heart of this synergy, the company is breaking new ground, proving that investing in the health of its employees can lead to significant results in terms of productivity and general well-being.

This is a tangible example of how focusing on health can be a winning strategic move, and FABO is marking the future of corporate well-being.

Printed tapes: Fabo’s flagship
The customisation of adhesive tapes is one of the most requested services by Fabo customers.

Customised tapes account for 20% of the volume sold in a year, a percentage that will grow over the years. Indeed, the figures speak of an increase of +13% in 2022 over the previous year.

Fabo’s technology provides high definition print quality, with the ability to brand the tape by printing logos, messages and various graphics to communicate your brand in an effective and original way.

The tapes can be customised on various backings: biaxially- and monoaxially-oriented polypropylene (BOPP, reinforced BOPP, MOPP), polyethylene (PE), polyester (PET – polyethylene terephthalate) and paper, with either acrylic or hot melt adhesive.

Types of flexographic printing: back and sandwich
Fabo can print on adhesive tape using two types of flexographic printing methods: back and sandwich.

These are two types of printing that differ in quality, strength of the printed image and cost of production.

 
What is the difference between the 2 types of printing?
Back flexographic printing
Back printing is a three-colour flexographic printing method. The work cycle starts with a 150 mm strip reel that is unwound, printed with a thermoregulated Teflon-coated counter-printing cylinder, cut lengthwise and rewound on two rewinding turrets. This is a print made precisely on the back of the tape (hence the name), i.e. on the outside of the media. It can be applied by corona treatment, in the case of water-based acrylic technology, or by the use of a printable release in the case of hot melt adhesive tapes.

What are the advantages of flexographic back printing?
The advantages of back printing are, primarily, time and cost. Machine processing times are faster and print costs are reduced compared to sandwich printing. These two aspects make it possible to speed up the production of more customised adhesive tapes.

However, the print can lose quality over time: because it is applied directly on the back, the ink used loses its sharpness, brilliance and graphic performance.

Sandwich flexographic printing
Flexographic sandwich printing, on the other hand, is a direct rotary printing method that uses embossed plates of rubber or photopolymer materials, known as clichés (printing plates). The plate is a matrix used to transfer the image onto the medium to be personalised. The stencil is relief-printed, flexible and soft, and is wound on a cylinder. Printing is direct: the plate transfers ink directly to the backing to be printed by means of a light pressure applied by a pressure cylinder. It is commonly called ‘sandwich’ because the ink is inserted on the inside, between the film and the adhesive.

What are the advantages of sandwich flexographic printing?
The resulting prints are qualitatively superior, sharper, brighter and more durable. The ink protected between the two layers thus resists abrasion from use and ageing of the tape, ensuring a longer life span. Another advantage is the possibility of four-colour printing.

On the other hand, however, the machine preparation steps are longer and consequently entail higher processing costs. As a result, sandwich printing is usually used for customisation of large quantities of adhesive tapes, so as to spread the cost of preparation over the total number of rolls.

5 reasons to choose a printed tape:

Tape is the ideal medium for packing and sealing boxes of all kinds and sizes, quickly and economically;
The tape offers unquestionable protection for the goods to be packed or shipped and protects them from tampering and signs of break-in;
The printed tape is a marketing tool: by printing the logo or other message, the package is recognisable at first glance by the recipient or anyone who comes into contact with it;
Printed tape is a tool for simplification: by customising the packaging, the storage and dispatch procedures themselves are smoother, faster and more efficient;
Fabo’s graphics department is able to provide assistance to the customer, supporting him in the development of the printing project, following the technical production of the graphic applications to be applied on adhesive tapes, and also producing other customisations on sleeves, labels and boxes on request.

455HM, or reinforced self-adhesive paper tape
The 455HM is a packaging tape with a semi-crepe paper backing reinforced with longitudinal glass fibres and an adhesive based on synthetic rubbers and hydrocarbon resins (hot melt).

The high tack adhesive formula guarantees immediate grip in the closure of heavy and very heavy packages, and can be used with both manual dispensers and automatic taping machines.

The reinforced self-adhesive paper tape is available in brown colour but, like most Fabo products, can be customised through high quality printing.

This is a reinforced version of a product already present in the Fabo range, the 435HM, but with higher performance for closing heavy boxes than others paper packaging adhesive tapes.

 
What are the main features of the 455HM?

High breaking strength due to its structure consisting of longitudinal glass fibres;
High tack formula: very high and instant adhesive power;
Solvent-free product: synthetic rubber adhesive;
Disposable in paper;
Tamper-resistant;
For manual and automatic application;
The total weight is 107 g/m² and the total thickness about 125 µ.

The longitudinal glass fibre-reinforced self-adhesive paper backing makes the 455HM tape much stronger both in terms of breaking load and shear strength.

Due to its structural characteristics, the product immediately bonds to the cardboard packaging becoming a tamper-resistant system: the bond between tape and cardboard is so strong that any attempt to open or tamper with the package is immediately visible.

The 455HM can be ordered costumised as well as with FSC®-certified paper.

This is a high quality and innovative product in a market such as the paper tape one, which is still growing and developping thanks also to the choices made by many companies to move towards more ‘green’ and sustainable products.

Called by many names – American duct tape, gaffers tape, American scotch tape, American canvas, duct tape or duck tape – it is a tape that, precisely because of its versatility, is part of the repair and protection tape category in our range.
Curious to know why it is called “American”?

The origins
The suffix “American” comes from its origins: it was first launched in the middle of World War II, after a working mother of two soldiers enlisted in the US Navy sent a letter to President Roosevelt. In that missive, the woman explained that, by combining the concept of duct tape, i.e. the non-adhesive canvas strips that were used to reinforce clothes, shoes, etc., with adhesive, it would be possible to seal the ammunition boxes more easily and quickly, thus solving the problem of moisture infiltration. At that time, a solution was needed to seal boxes containing ammunition, transport them safely and open them quickly once they arrived at their destination.

That letter was actually forwarded by the president’s office to the war committee, which commissioned the development of the gaffers tape to a branch of Jonhson&Jonhson, Revolite. From early on, the tape was used by the US military for makeshift repairs to military vehicles and weapons.

It was Johnson & Johnson that first named it “duck tape” because of its water resistance that emulates that of a duck’s back.
After the war, American tape began to be used in construction, in particular for sealing heating and air conditioning duct joints. At that time, the colour changed from military green to silver, now its distinguishing feature.

The characteristics
It is a type of adhesive fabric tape that is particularly strong because it has a fabric reinforcement and is typically made waterproof by a polyethylene coating.
The type of fabric varies greatly: it can be cotton, but also nylon, polyester, fibreglass and so on. Below the fabric layer is the actual adhesive layer, which is typically very strong, while above it is a waterproof coating, usually made of low-intensity polyethylene.
The typical colour of the gaffers tape is grey, glossy grey.

The American Fabo tape is a hot melt tape with a polyethylene backing reinforced with polyester fibres. Its colour is the classic grey.

Let’s look at its main characteristics:

Great strength, able to withstand significant mechanical tensions;
Excellent conformability: it adapts to many shapes/applications;
Suitable for various surfaces (metal, glass, plastic, concrete, etc.);
Suitable for long-term applications;
Good abrasion resistance;
Waterproof, resistant to moisture;
Quick and easy to use: cut with your hands;
Writable;
Easily removable;

All uses: versatility is the watchword
American duct tape therefore has unique characteristics, making it ideal for the world of emergency (temporary) repairs and also for those intended to be stable and durable.
It is a versatile tape, indispensable in every environment and in every activity, from the domestic sphere to the industrial one because it effectively, safely and durably solves every need.
At home, it is the must-have tape in the toolbox: suitable for protection and sealing tasks, everyday emergency repairs, DIY activities.
Thanks to its composition and ductility, it lends itself to makeshift repairs even on surfaces subjected to extreme temperature conditions, such as ventilation or air conditioning ducts, with temperatures below zero. Or to repair exhaust pipes of cars or motorbikes where the heat developed can reach several hundred degrees.
On an industrial level, these reinforced tapes are used not only to seal ducts and pipes, but also to fasten protective covers together, secure transport (fastening of loose elements). Its extreme strength also makes it useful for belting objects and reinforcing packaging.

Advice on application?
Application requires gentle pressure on the surface to eliminate any air bubbles or creases. It is suitable for use on a variety of materials, adhering for a long time where almost all tapes come off. Very effective on rough, dirty surfaces, emergency repairs to pipes, PVC inflatables, boats, motor vehicles.

Fabo consolidates its ties with the Pistoia area by signing a membership agreement with the Pistoia Musei museum system.

The Pistoia Musei museum system is composed of four different venues located in the heart of Pistoia’s historic centre: a project started in 2019 under the Scientific Direction of Philip Rylands (Director Emeritus of the Peggy Guggenheim Collection, Venice) from the initiative of Fondazione Caript, managed by its instrumental company Pistoia Musei & Cultura Scrl and today directed by Monica Preti, for many years Director of cultural programming at the Auditorium Musée du Louvre.
What is Corporate Membership?
It is a programme aimed at businesses and professionals to become part of the prestigious museum system and contribute to making it a point of reference for the city’s cultural life.

Through its Corporate Membership, Pistoia Musei wants to gather entrepreneurs, companies and professionals around the city’s heritage and projects, in a strategic partnership between museums and enterprise.

By joining the Membership, Fabo associates its corporate identity with a cultural institution, thus leaving a concrete sign of its social responsibility through its commitment to culture and support for the arts.
The benefits are many: from marketing and communication opportunities, to the opportunity to meet, network, propose new projects, participate in exclusive events, and come into contact with artists and representative figures from the art world.

“Pistoia Musei gives a boost to the growth and enhancement of the local area by focusing on two fundamental values such as art and culture. Fabo wants to be the spokesperson for this message with the people who work and collaborate with the company” say our CEO & Directors Maurizio Fagni and Samuela Fagni.

The collaboration project between Fabo and the communication agency SPAM concept, set up to support the didactic offer of Istituto Italiano di Fotografia – IIF led by Maurizio Cavalli, advertising photographer, founder and didactic director of the institute since 1992, has come to an end after 3 months.

The participants, aspiring photographers enrolled in the 2nd year of IIF’s prestigious two-year course, were asked to create an advertising campaign that would fully express the essence of gummed paper, a sustainable and recyclable product in which the company is making significant investments.

The entries were carefully judged and selected, considering their relevance to the brief, the creativity and the execution of the shot by the young photographer, resulting in the definition of the 3 winners:

1- Nicola De Leo

2- Alice Castelli

3- Davide Santillo

The 3 winners will have the opportunity to collaborate on projects related to corporate communication.

In view of the high quality of the projects executed and the effort put in, 7 other participants were also given the opportunity to have their shots published on the company’s social channels.

Fabo would like to thank the institute and the students who, with the support of the creative director Federico Mirarchi, created images that are surprising in their sensitivity and ability to represent the values of the company and the product.

During the purchasing process, more and more people want to make a responsible choice. For this reason, the place of origin, the raw materials and the environmental impact of the product are increasingly relevant information for the consumer.

For the producers of paper and its derivatives, a pressing issue is the responsible use of forest resources.

Hence the need for standards and procedures that can certify the responsible management of a forest and the traceability of materials derived from it, offering necessary guarantees to both the company that produces and the citizen who buys a paper product.

 
What FSC® means
FSC® (Forest Stewardship Council) is one of the most widely used environmental certification systems. It is an international NGO founded in 1993 with the aim of promoting forest management that is:

environmentally friendly
socially useful
economically sustainable

FSC® includes among its members NGOs and environmental groups (WWF, Greenpeace), social groups (National Aboriginal Forestry Association of Canada), forest owners, wood and paper trading and processing industries, retail groups, researchers and technicians, totalling almost 900 members.

The internationally recognised FSC® certification system aims at correct forest management and traceability of derived products.

 
Fabo and FSC® certification
In October 2022, Fabo obtained FSC®  Chain of Custody certification, the certification for companies involved in the processing and/or trade of forest products.
Certified products must comply with very strict regulations defined by the body. Some of these concern:

Environmental impact – Forest management will ensure that biological diversity and its associated values, water resources, soils and ecosystems are preserved. In a nutshell, responsible collection of the necessary material is ensured in order to maintain the integrity of the forest.
Community relations and workers’ rights – Forest management operations must maintain or improve the long-term social and economic well-being of forest workers and local communities.
Rights of indigenous peoples – The legal and customary rights of indigenous peoples to own, use and manage their lands, territories and resources must be recognised and respected.
Compliance with FSC® Laws and Principles –  Forest management must comply with all applicable laws of the country in which it occurs, international treaties and agreements to which the country is a signatory, and comply with all FSC® principles and criteria.

In other words, an FSC®-certified forest is managed in an environmentally, socially and legally responsible manner. 

 
What are the requirements a company has to fulfil to obtain this certification for its products?
FABO has undergone a thorough inspection of the departments called upon to handle FSC®-certified raw material: this is the beginning of a journey with obligations and regulations to be complied with, to which the company will be subjected every year. Certification represents an achievement that the company is committed to maintaining over time.
A choice of responsibility, a commitment to its customers.

 
What kind of classification
FSC-certified paper can be classified in three ways, depending on the origin of the raw material:

FSC® 100% declares that the material from which the product is made comes exclusively from certified forests.
FSC® Recycled for all products made from recycled and recovered material
FSC® Mixed, as the word itself says, is a mix of material from FSC®-certified forests (not less than 70%) and recycled material and/or controlled wood.
