MORE IMPACT ON CUSTOMERS, LESS ON THE ENVIRONMENT

 

 

With over 80% of our facility's power being generated from renewable energy sources and recycling hundreds of tons of laminated and transfer-metallized paper each year, Hazen Paper is committed to sustainability and creating sustainable products. With that said, we are proud to introduce you to our environmentally friendly Envirofoil®.

​

Hazen Envirofoil® is transfer-metallized, with no plastic and a minimum amount of aluminum – so it’s easily recycled as printed paper. Dramatic source reduction means it carries 20 times less metal per square inch than metallic ink. Envirofoil® can be printed offset or with digital ink. It meets strict environmental criteria, certified by the Forest Stewardship Council, Sustainable Forestry Initiative, and the International Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification.
 

Envirofoil® is available in silver as well as holographic variants. A package created with custom holography on Hazen Envirofoil® allows you to add dimensionality, movement and/or texture while ensuring brand colors stay true. It defies counterfeiting, refracts light to simulate emotion while having a tactile appeal.

 

Certified Recyclable. After scoring Envirofoil® 19 out of 20 total points for recyclability using methodology developed by the bifa Environmental Institute, Interseroh, in Cologne, Germany, authorized the use of the “Made for Recycling” quality seal for packaging made with silver or holographic Envirofoil. The Lucense Research Institute, based in Italy, granted Envirofoil the certification "Recyclable with Paper - Aticelca® 501.” Hazen President John Hazen commented, “these environmental seals of approval telegraph quickly to consumers that the products they are buying are packaged sustainably. The ability to verify sustainability is increasingly important to consumers, so it is also important to brand owners, and to us.” 
 

We make dreams a reality. Working in partnership with your designers and printers, Hazen's team of holographers can develop holographic effects that bring your ultimate creative vision to life and are optimized for printer capability. Our vertically integrated operation delivers tight production control and fast turnaround.

​

Pushing the envelope and package. Hazen's dedicated holography for the Artic Blue Gin featuring Envirofoil® was awarded 2020 “Product of the Year” along with "Product of the Year" for Titleist golf ball packages featuring Envirofoil® by the Association of International Metallizers, Coaters, and Laminators (AIMCAL).
 

Unparalleled quality and brightness. Sub-micron transfer-metallized Envirofoil® is manufactured with less than 1% of the aluminum of traditional foil laminate or film laminates, reuses the film carrier multiple times, and is recyclable as paper – as attested by these new certifications. Brighter than other transfer-metallized products, Envirofoil® registers a reading of 850 on the 0 to 1,000 scale of a Gardner gloss meter, versus less than 800 for competitors.
