The Common Voice of the European Paper and Board Converting Industry The International Confederation of Paper and Board Converters in Europe (CITPA) was founded 1962 and is the leading association of the paper and board converting industry in Europe. CITPA represents about 5.000 mostly small and medium-sized firms with about 380.000 employees. Annually the paper and board converting industry in the EU member states produces paper and board products with a production value of about 60.000 Million EURO.

Products and ServicesCarbon Footprint
The Start – 18th January 2007Supermarket giant Tesco has unveiled wide ranging plans to cut carbon emissions and encourage its customers to buy green Tesco said it aimed to develop a carbon footprint labelling measure for all products sold in store, and cut the cost of many energy-efficient goodsSir Terry Leahy, Chief Executive, said "I am determined that Tesco should be a leader in helping to create a low-carbon economy"

DIBP
EU Plastics Directive, the specific migration limit (SML) for di-n-butyl phthalate (DNBP) is 0.3mg/kg food (0.05mg/dm² paper). Nowadays, this substance (DNBP) is being substituted by another similar substance called DIBP which is a component of adhesives used during the manufacture of laminated and corrugated board. Both substances are found in recycled packaging papers and the levels of DIBP now exceed, by a wide margin, the new limit for DNBP.
FEFCO, CITPA and CEPI urge the paper industry to phase out the use of DIBPThe Adhesive Industry is encouraging its members to do the sameGlobal action needed due to flows of global trade in packaging and recovered paper
