SUSTAINABILITY

UNIVERSAL GREEN PACKAGING

Universal Green Packaging Inc. is a 100% Canadian
manufacturer of premium paper bags, proudly operating with
nearly 30 years of experience in the packaging industry.
Every aspect of our production — from raw material sourcing
and rope manufacturing to flexographic printing and
converting — is done entirely in-house at our state-of-the-art
Canadian facilities.

Our Commitment to Local Sourcing


Sustainability is at the core of everything we do at Universal Green Packaging Inc. As a 100% Canadian manufacturer, we take pride in sourcing all of our raw materials from within Canada and North America, reducing our carbon footprint while supporting local economies. Every bag starts with responsibly harvested pulp that’s processed right here at home, ensuring quality and traceability from forest to finished product.

Eco-Friendly Materials & Processes

Our production process uses water-based, biodegradable inks and adhesives that are safe for food contact and align with the highest environmental standards. We’ve invested in state-of-the-art equipment that minimizes water and energy consumption, captures and reclaims residual materials, and ensures zero harmful emissions throughout manufacturing.

Transparency & Ethical Supply Chain

Transparency is the bedrock of our ethical sourcing practices. From the moment we purchase wood fibers to the final delivery of finished bags, we document every step and provide clear reporting to our customers. Our suppliers undergo rigorous audits to guarantee fair labor practices, safe working conditions, and minimal ecological impact at every stage.

FSC® Chain of Custody Certification


We are proudly FSC® Chain of Custody certified, which means every paper fiber in our products can be traced back to responsibly managed forests. This certification guarantees environmental, social, and economic benefits—protecting wildlife habitats, supporting forestry communities, and preventing deforestation through rigorous chain-of-custody standards.

Designing for a Sustainable Future

From design to delivery, every bag we produce reflects our promise to protect the planet. We collaborate closely with brands to develop custom solutions that reduce packaging waste, promote recycling, and enhance end-of-life compostability. Together, we move toward a more sustainable, circular economy.
