APP Group, in collaboration with Solaris Paper, is driving sustainability in the tissue industry by utilizing Rapidly Renewable Fibre (RRF)—an eco-friendly alternative to conventional paper sources. Through a partnership with Sorbent Tissue Australia, this initiative reduces environmental impact while maintaining the high quality of tissue products.
RRF is derived from fast-growing Eucalyptus and Acacia trees, which mature in just six to eight years, compared to the decades-long growth cycle of traditional hardwood species. These plantations yield up to 30% more fibre per hectare, reducing pressure on natural forests while ensuring a sustainable and consistent supply of raw materials. By adopting shorter harvesting cycles, APP Group and its partners enhance resource efficiency and promote long-term industry sustainability.
Beyond its environmental benefits, RRF also improves product quality, delivering whiter, softer, and more durabletissue compared to recycled fibres. Currently, over 80% of tissue products from APP Group and Solaris Paper are made using RRF, aligning with APP Group’s Zero Deforestation Commitment. All raw materials come from responsibly managed plantations, reinforcing strict environmental and social safeguards.
“Our dedication to sustainability goes beyond compliance—it’s about shaping a more responsible future,” said [Spokesperson’s Name], [Position] at APP Group. “By embracing RRF, we uphold the highest environmental standards while ensuring the premium quality that consumers expect.”
As demand for eco-friendly tissue products continues to rise, APP Group remains a leader in sustainable fibre innovation. By advancing RRF, the company is setting new industry benchmarks, demonstrating how environmental responsibility and product excellence can go hand in hand to create a greener future in Australia and beyond.
