The American Forest & Paper Association (AF&PA) an- nounced the celebration of the 63rd annual National Forest Products Week. Throughout the week, AF&PA will highlight the industry’s sustainability leadership and paper recycling achievements within the circular economy. “During National Forest Products Week, we recognize the 925,000 people from the forest products industry who make sustainable products for a more sustainable future,” said AF&PA President and CEO Heidi Brock. The forest products industry’s sustainable products in- clude paper, packaging including cardboard, tissue prod- ucts, pulp and wood products. The paper and wood prod- ucts industry is committed to sustainability success and resource efficiency throughout the production process. AF&PA is proud to work with the Paper and Packaging Caucus on our mutual goal of securing a more sustainable future. “AF&PA recognizes the support of the Paper and Pack- aging Caucus including our co-chairs: Congressman Dan Newhouse (R-WA), Congressman Lou Correa (D-CA), Sen- ator John Boozman (R–AR) and Senator Debbie Stabenow (D–MI). This bipartisan caucus focuses on finding policy solutions to support our industry’s long-term sustainability achievements,” Brock said.
