We’re unlocking the power of trees to make every day more sustainable – for the customers we serve, the communities where we operate and the planet we all call home.
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.
Long-lasting change comes from within individuals and within communities. Against this backdrop, in 2015, Sappi SA launched the Abashintshi (’Changers’ in isiZulu) programme.
As an anchor tenant in the rural space in Southern Africa, Sappi is acutely aware of the crucial role that rural women play in the agricultural labour force.
Sappi’s international Revolving Credit Facility (RCF) of EUR 515 million benefits from our newly developed Sustainable Financing Framework. This is more proof of our sustainability promise and contributions to the circular economy.
Sappi recognises the role of women and girls in science and sees them as activists and as agents of change, playing an important role in accelerating progress towards a better future for all.
Project Vulindlela is our multi-billion-rand expansion project to boost Saiccor Mill’s dissolving pulp (DP) capacity by 110,000 tons per annum. The project has significant benefits for people, the planet and prosperity in South Africa.
Innovation is embedded in Sappi's DNA with the latest expression in an exciting new collaboration with the Rochester Institute of Technology in upstate New York.
