PDL Publishes CSR Report: Driving Sustainability in Specialty Papers and Baking Paper

At PDL, we believe that industry can and should be part of the solution to today’s global challenges. As a European leader in specialty papers and the producer behind Primabake baking paper, we carry the responsibility to lead by example. That’s why we are proud to share our latest Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Report, a reflection of our commitment to sustainability, innovation, and responsible growth.

Sustainability at the Core of PDL’s Strategy

Our CSR approach is founded on three pillars: environmental stewardship, social responsibility, and economic sustainability. Guided by six axes aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), PDL places sustainability at the very heart of its strategy.

This means going beyond compliance. For us, responsibility is not only about reducing risks—it’s about shaping a more sustainable paper industry that supports our customers, communities, and the environment.

Responsible Innovation in Specialty Papers

As the company behind Primabake, our flagship range of baking paper, we continuously invest in innovation to ensure that our products meet the highest standards of performance and environmental responsibility. From reducing waste in production to enhancing energy efficiency, our teams are continually working to minimize our environmental impact while delivering high-quality specialty papers for the industry.

Key Achievements Highlighted in the CSR Report

In this report, PDL outlines concrete actions and measurable progress across all six CSR axes:

• Reducing carbon footprint through process efficiency and renewable energy initiatives.
• Enhancing circularity by focusing on recyclable and compostable paper solutions.
• Supporting employees and communities with strong social and workplace commitments.
• Driving innovation in sustainable packaging and baking paper solutions.

These actions reflect our ambition to contribute meaningfully to the global sustainability agenda while ensuring that our business model remains resilient and future-ready.

Together Toward a Greener Future

At PDL, we see our role as more than a paper manufacturer—we are partners in building a sustainable future for the specialty papers and baking paper industry. Our CSR report is a call to action: to collaborate, innovate, and ensure that industry becomes not part of the problem, but part of the solution.
