07 Dec 2023 --- Tactic Games is replacing plastic shrink wrap with UPM Raflatac Forest Film labels to reduce fossil-based material use and lower its game packagings’ environmental impact. The clear Forest Film label is made with 90% renewable wood-based materials and will be used as a sealing label material for Tactic’s Mother Earth game. The games provider aims to seal all games with Forest Film by the end of this year. Minimizing carbon footprint and utilizing recycled materials are priorities for Tactic when producing games. The company says it has launched “numerous” initiatives to reduce its environmental impact. For example, all products manufactured at Tactic’s factory in Finland use only certified paper, cardboard and carton. “The use of unnecessary plastic in packaging contributes to environmental burden and the proliferation of plastic waste. Tactic wanted to shift toward a more sustainable packaging solution to reduce our environmental impact,” says Tactic’s marketing and licensing manager, Jemina Heljakka.
