Recognition honors those companies who lead with integrity and align principle with action

International Paper (NYSE: IP) has been recognized once again by the Ethisphere Institute, a global leader in defining and advancing the standards of ethical business practices, as a 2017 World's Most Ethical Company^®.  For the eleventh straight year, IP was named as one of the World's Most Ethical Companies despite a large number of global nominees. International Paper secured a spot on the list by maintaining its focus on the ethical business practices and standards that have defined the company since its inception 119 years ago.

"At International Paper, it is our vision to be among the most successful, sustainable and responsible companies in the world. Our 55,000 global employees are committed to improving people's lives, the planet and our company's performance by transforming renewable resources into products people depend on every day," said Sharon Ryan, Senior Vice President, General Counsel & Corporate Secretary. "I want to congratulate our global team for achieving this well-earned recognition."

2017 is the eleventh year that Ethisphere has honored those companies who recognize their role in society to influence and drive positive change, consider the impact of their actions on their employees, investors, customers and other key stakeholders and use their values and culture as an underpinning to the decisions they make every day.

"Over the last eleven years we have seen the shift in societal expectations, constant redefinition of laws and regulations and the geo-political climate. We have also seen how companies honored as the World's Most Ethical respond to these challenges. They invest in their local communities around the world, embrace strategies of diversity and inclusion, and focus on long term-ism as a sustainable business advantage," explained Ethisphere's Chief Executive Officer, Timothy Erblich. "Congratulations to everyone at International Paper for being recognized as a World's Most Ethical Company."

Methodology & Scoring
The World's Most Ethical Company assessment is based upon the Ethisphere Institute's Ethics Quotient^® (EQ) framework which offers a quantitative way to assess a company's performance in an objective, consistent and standardized way. The information collected provides a comprehensive sampling of definitive criteria of core competencies, rather than all aspects of corporate governance, risk, sustainability, compliance and ethics.

Scores are generated in five key categories: ethics and compliance program (35%), corporate citizenship and responsibility (20%), culture of ethics (20%), governance (15%) and leadership, innovation and reputation (10%) and provided to all companies who participate in the process.

­­Honorees

Best practices and insights from the 2017 honorees will be released in a series of infographics and research throughout the year (view or download the 2016 insights). Organizations interested in how they compare to the World's Most Ethical Companies are invited to participate in the Ethics Quotient.

ArborGen, a world leader in the development and commercialization of technologies that improve the productivity of trees, has just announced that it is expanding its agreement with International Paper Brazil by granting ArborGen additional access to IP’s Eucalyptus germplasm. This will allow an increased effort to develop and sell new varieties of seedlings with improved traits and capable of being grown in regions of Brazil where there is growing interest in Eucalyptus plantations. Since 2013 when the company began its commercial sales operation sales have increased to a current projection of 47 million Eucalyptus seedlings and nine million Pine seedlings in 2016.

The Brazilian forestry industry is one of the largest, fastest growing in the world; Brazil is the world’s largest producer and exporter of hardwood pulp. The Eucalyptus market utilizes approximately 700 million seedlings per year. With the original agreement, private landowners gained access to elite Eucalyptus clones that were once only available to integrated producers. This new agreement will increase that access and allow for additional development of advanced genetics for landowners.

ArborGen formed ArborGen Brazil in 2004 as a product and business development center. The company initially began working with several large integrated Eucalyptus and Pine pulp and paper companies and has conducted extensive field trials with biotech products. Since 2013 ArborGen do Brasil increased its interests in the Brazilian Eucalyptus seedling market through its operation of the Luiz Antonio nursery and working with other contract nurseries to produce and sell improved varieties to the open market. “This expanded agreement allows ArborGen to utilize its advanced technologies and tree breeding expertise with IP germplasm to continue to improve the genetics of existing seedlings. We will also be able to offer additional benefits such as increased yields and improved growth to landowners while expanding the breeding program to other regions of Brazil and other sectors as sawtimber, bioenergy, etc.,” said Gabriela Monnerat, managing director of ArborGen of Brazil.

For over 110 years – more than 50 of them in Brazil – International Paper has been one of the companies that most cares about the environment. Thus, the expanded agreement only reinforces the company's commitment to the development of the forestry sector. "We know the genetic material choice is fundamental to guarantee the success of any new forestry development, so the expansion of the agreement with ArborGen provides the opportunity for other companies to produce wood with top quality genetic material. IP continues investing in actions and programs which contribute to the growth of the forestry sector in Brazil," highlights Luis Fernando Silva, Fiber Production Senior manager at International Paper.

On the evening of Jan. 22, International Paper Company (NYSE: IP) experienced significant structural damage to the largest pulp digester as well as the power house at its Pensacola pulp and paper mill in Cantonment, Fla.  No one at the mill was injured. 

Response teams are working with local, state and federal agencies to provide information for those impacted.  The incident released a mixture of wood fiber, water and pulping liquor into the surrounding community.  We have engaged contractors to develop and implement plans to clean up and dispose of the discharged material as quickly as possible.  We are providing all necessary support and resources to our local community and residents as we work through the clean-up.

Our primary focus is on ensuring the health and safety of our employees, contractors and neighbors and on the clean-up of the affected areas and property. 

Currently, the mill is not operating.  We are assessing the extent of the damage to the mill, evaluating supply options and will be working closely with our customers to meet their needs.

International Paper (NYSE: IP) is committed to improving food safety throughout the supply chain. The Company announced their Kenton, Ohio and Visalia, California facilities achieved food safety certification by exceeding the standards of the benchmarking procedures as dictated by the Global Food Safety Initiative (GFSI). The two sites join IP's Shelbyville, Ill. Facility that was certified in March, 2016. All three sites achieved scores above 99%.

Earlier this year, International Paper set the goal of exceeding the GFSI standards at 100% of the company's U.S. Foodservice Facilities before year-end and that has been done.

GFSI is a non-profit, international benchmarking organization created to standardize food safety rules and has been rapidly recognized as the 'gold standard' for international food safety. These global specifications promoted by GFSI address food, packaging, packaging materials, storage and distribution. Certification is a very stringent and demanding process that requires a facility to organize its Quality Management System (QMS) to address components in the manufacturing process such as management responsibility, hazard analysis, resource management and document control of procedures, policies and records.

"Safety as a whole is deep-seated part of our everyday operations and our number one priority," stated Jon Ernst, Vice-President and General Manager of International Paper's Foodservice Business. "We are proactively doing our part to ensure we have the systems in place to eliminate food safety risks in the packaging arena and continue to provide a top quality product."

Requests for GFSI-benchmarked audits have been quickly growing. Ernst says that many large retailers and foodservice industry brands are calling for this type of certification as a pre-requisite to doing business. "International Paper continuously strives to exceed our commitment of excellence to our customers. As the needs of our customers continue to grow, we are well positioned to meet those needs."
