Rachel Lincoln Sarnoff: Have you ever smelled eucalyptus — you know that powerful minty scent that just clears your head and melts away all that tension in your body? Well, now imagine a forest full of it.

So, you’re surrounded by eucalyptus trees. Do you still love that smell, or are you over it?

Krelyne Andrew: I love it. [laughs] I love it, but I don’t get to be in the eucalyptus plantation that much.

RLS: Meet Krelyne Andrew, the general manager of sustainability for Sappi Verve.

KA: I often say to people that I’ve been at the company for three rotations of the eucalyptus tree.

RLS: That’s about 20 years. Every year, in South Africa and North America, Sappi Verve produces 1.4 million tons of dissolving pulp from certified, sustainably managed trees, including eucalyptus.

KA: The products that we make are used in everyday life; you know, it touches our lives every day.

RLS: In this episode, we’re going to explore how Sappi Verve uses every part of the tree to support their circular manufacturing goals.
