22 April 2023 – Today, Sappi joins the world in celebrating Mother Earth Day and in reflecting on our investment in nature.
Inspiring young people to explore careers in the pulp and paper industry with Sappi is essential to achieve our sustainability goals. Our mills in Europe are leading the way with outreach to schools and a rewarding apprenticeship programme.

Sappi believes that the future of our planet relies on a well-educated and environmentally conscious society to be wise stewards of the environment that sustains us all.
Girl Scouts visit the Sappi North America Technology Center to learn about paper science. It's another example of how we plant seeds of change for a thriving world.
SMEs are a vital engine of the economy, creating jobs and enabling inclusive growth. Promoting their development is just one of the ways we’re contributing to a thriving, more sustainable world.
Supporting the health and wellbeing of Sappi people and the communities where we operate is a top priority for our company.
The Covid-19 pandemic did have some silver linings. For the apprentices at our Skills Centres, it inspired the creation of a new business to supply reusable cloth masks and other personal protective equipment (PPE) in South Africa.
