The high-quality silk-coated paper and board, which is FSC certified and 100% recycled, is available exclusively from paper merchant Premier Paper Group.

It is produced using 100% de-inked post-consumer waste that doesn't include chemical bleaching.

In addition to supplying the grade, Premier Paper Group has also helped to produce exhibition banners for FSC UK.

Charles Thwaites, FSC UK executive director, said that as a charity, FSC relies on the support of companies when it comes to producing promotional material, which he said should benefit all FSC-certified companies and the world's forests.

"FSC UK is extremely grateful to the Premier Paper Group for the sponsorship of our banners and the donation of paper for the 2008/09 Annual Report, enabling us to keep printing costs to a minimum.

"The banners have already been used at a variety of events and exhibitions and the annual reports have also been widely circulated, helping to raise awareness of the importance of responsible forestry and the role of FSC."

Independent merchant Premier Paper Group has 15 stock holding branches and five specialist divisions.
