Industry Intelligence Webinar: Paper Products—Environmental Marketing Best Practices

LOS ANGELES - March 27, 2013 - PRLog -- LOS ANGELES– Industry Intelligence Inc., a market intelligence and information management company serving the forest products, packaging, and food and beverage industries, today announced it will offer a webinar with Phil Riebel of Two Sides U.S. on April 10. In this presentation, Riebel will lead attendees through the newly published FTC guidelines for environmental marketing. He will give recommendations for the use of Type 1 (independently verified eco-labels) and Type 2 (self-declared) environmental claims related to paper products.

Phil Riebel, president and COO of Two Sides U.S., brings 24-plus years of working on paper sustainability issues to his presentation. He will speak about common issues faced by professionals in the graphic communication value chain (paper producers, merchants, printers, converters, publishers, graphic designers, sales and marketing personnel, paper buyers and more).

In 2011, Riebel worked with Martyn Eustace, founder of Two Sides U.K., and several supporting companies to expand Two Sides to the U.S. Two Sides is a not-for-profit organization with the goal of promoting the responsible production and use of print and paper and dispelling common environmental misconceptions about paper.

Consumers for Paper Options and The Envelope Manufacturers Association (EMA) are supporting this webinar. Consumers for Paper Options works to preserve paper-based options for the 30% of Americans who lack Internet access and rely on paper for their sole source of information.
