9 RESPONSIBLE PACKAGING Reduction of plastic packaging in favor of recyclable, recycled or from sustainably managed forests : by the end of 2023, OPSIAL will have reduced annual plastic usage by 45 tons through the development of new packaging. Use of recycled plastic for packaging our products when cardboard is not suitable. Printing with vegetable-based inks: these inks have lower toxicity as they use vegetable oils and natural resins, unlike mineral inks based on petroleum. RESPONSIBLE MATERIALS Selection of more eco-friendly materials and fibers from more responsible production: Recycled polyester: reduces plastic waste, polyester production (from petroleum extraction), energy consumption, and water usage. Organic cotton: cultivated WITHOUT pesticides, insecticides, or chemical fertilizers, and is GMO-free; it better protects the soil, the health of producers, and consumers.
