On April 22nd, the International Council of Forest & Paper Associations (ICFPA) rallied its members across the globe, calling for both their attention and their participation in a pressing issue - the battle against climate change. In conjunction with the United Nations, the group launched a series of environmentally-friendly amendments, each meant to combat rising temperatures and excessive resource consumptions. These amendments were called the 'Analysis of Forest Contributions to the INDCs'... and they now prove essential.According to the ICFPA, recent climate change has sparked international concern - with high carbon levels and extreme greenhouse gases affecting the environment. To counter this issue, it’s called for stricter quality control standards among the lumber and paper industries, seeking to fuse milling operations with sustainability. This would include:
Reducing Emissions From Deforestation.
Implementing Afforestation Efforts.
Developing Bio-Based Technologies to Reduce Fossil Fuel Consumption.
Investing in Sustainable Equipment.

Connexus Industries supports the decisions of the ICFPA - and we help to promote them, delivering durable specialty chains to mills. Our products are engineered for optimum performance, boasting steel manganese materials, recessed rivets, and heavy cross sections. This allows them to adapt to all high-tensile loads, with their innovative designs promising increased resistance to breakage.
This promotes sustainable practices, with North American mills no longer forced to consume further materials to complete their operations. All applications are instead fused with maximum efficiency, which helps to lessen overall emissions and resource strains.
