C2C-certified paper means paper that has gone through the Cradle to Cradle® (C2C) cycle, which is the perpetual recycling of resources. This means that no waste is generated and that all the materials used to make the paper can be recycled. After use, the paper can be recycled back into the technical cycle, for example, as a recycling resource.  www.gmund-colors-green.com  www.c2ccertified.org

Algae Offset Ink™, a print ink based on algae, replaces petroleum-derived pigments used in conventional offset printing inks and has a much smaller carbon footprint than these. Thanks to their photosynthesis capabilities, ink production from algae can even be carbon negative. Currently, Algae Offset Ink™ is available only in black.  www.livingink.co

Many bioplastics are designed for industrial composting facilities. The material traceless - from the namesake Circular Bioeconomy startup - is, on the other hand, compostable under natural conditions. The raw material for traceless consists of agricultural industry residuals. www.traceless.eu

Today, synthetic plastics are used for many purposes for which natural rubber was used in the past. This is a regrettable development as natural rubber is produced from a renewable raw material. It rots by being decomposed by micro-organisms and thus, reintegrates into the natural cycle. www.fair.zone
