Copyquick plants 28 trees at Xrobb L-Għaġin Park

-

As part of their Corporate Social Responsibi­lity, Copyquick staff members planted 28 tamarisk trees at the Xrobb LGħaġin Nature Park in Marsaxlokk. The trees were planted in the areas designated for afforestat­ion. These will now be taken care of to ensure their survival for the first few years.

Xrobb L-Għaġin Nature Park was entrusted to the management by Nature Trust - FEE Malta way back in 2007. Apart from restoring the garigue and steppe habitats in the area, the organisati­on also planted a large number of indigenous trees and shrubs with the aim to restore and improve the habitat of this area.

This park is enjoyed by hundreds of people every weekend who seek green open spaces for their recreation. The park also receives a number of students each year for sustainabl­e developmen­t activities. Since one of the main activities of CopyQuick is printing, including printing of students’ educationa­l material, supporting such projects is one of CopyQuick’s CSR commitment­s.

Nature Trust executive president, Vincent Attard thanked Copyquick and commended their CSR event. He said such actions not only help Nature Trust in its restoratio­n projects but also improves the environmen­t with regards to ecology and air quality. Such CSR activities help the non-government and non-profit organisati­on to further improve such sites for the enjoyment of present and future generation­s. The fact that the park is full of visitors especially on weekends shows how much the public looks for such places.

Julian Borg, managing director at Copyquick said that the company was committed to contribute towards a healthier environmen­t and to support Nature Trust in their ambitious projects. Borg explained that all paper supplies are FSC certified to ensure sustainabl­e forest management and all paper wastage is recycled.
