PAPERCONE CORPORATION MARKS INAUGURAL OF
EMA FOUNDATION ENVIRONMENTAL INITIATIVE FUND
July 25, 2007, Alexandria, VA - - Papercone Corporation, an envelope manufacturing company based in Louisville, KY, has made a $50,000 commitment to the Environmental Initiative Fund, recently established by the Envelope Manufacturers Association Foundation (EMAF) for Paper-Based Communications. The Foundation will use gifts to this dedicated fund to help educate consumers and mailers about environmental initiatives within the envelope industry, to conduct research to solidify the industry?s perspective on environmental issues, and to promote the industry?s efforts for a clean environment.
Brooks Bower, chairman of the Foundation and chairman & CEO of Papercone noted, ?It is very important for companies involved in the paper-based communications industry to support environmental initiatives through this fund. The EMA Foundation has done an excellent job conducting research and promoting our industry. It?s a fact of life that environmentalists have us, collectively, under a microscope. We need to show our own customers and everyone else how and what the envelope industry is doing to promote a healthy and clean environment.?
