Advantia Business Solutions is one of the UK's most innovative and forward thinking Marketing and Purchasing organisations in the office products industry. They are a non-profit making company, owned by independent office supplies dealers operating throughout the UK and Channel Islands. Advantia have a group turnover of over £125 million and the huge purchasing power of a national supply chain, giving their customers huge savings on over 30,000 product lines; from stationery to workwear.

This is the second year that Advantia have supported The National Forest. The office products industry produces a tremendous amount of paper and card based products and Advantia wanted to continue to highlight re-cycling and encourage their dealers to promote 'green' alternatives.

Bob Geens, Advantia Chief Executive told us "We proudly support this exceptional project and by getting involved through our network of dealers we can help to promote the work of The National Forest throughout the UK." He continued, "As a group Advantia is totally committed to practices that protect and improve the environment and promote a greener business life. Our annual catalogue is printed on recycled paper and contains hundreds of environmentally friendly products. We also operate a range of recycling schemes including a complete closed loop program for paper."

To date Advantia's head office personnel and dealers have planted 300 trees in The National Forest with another 100 trees due to be planted at the end of the year.
