This sub-metric is used to evaluate the metric : ""5.4 Wood and paper""
With this metric we intend to make known and compare the actions and policies of the main distributors in Spain regarding the recycled and sustainable origin of the raw material of forest origin used both in the elements used by their customers and collaborators (paper bags, material advertising and office), as in the assortment of own brand products on the shelves.
These policies are summarized in the following 3 areas of action in terms of the sustainable use of wood, paper and cardboard:

- Certifications that guarantee the sustainability of these raw materials (FSC, PEFC, ECOLABEL, ..)
- Recycled Paper / Cardboard / Wood (PCM)
- Initiatives of reduction (less quantity of paper / wood used), of replacement (by digitization actions such as digital purchase receipt, ...) or elimination (such as the non-distribution of paper brochures)
