Loto-Québec has teamed up with Scientific Games and Rolland to produce the 'Évasion scratch ticket' — lottery tickets made from 100% recycled materials. Not only is the Évasion scratch ticket printed on recycled material, but the ink is also an environmentally friendly, water-based ink. According to the article, it is "the smallest environmental footprint in the industry."
Many consumers are more eco-conscious of their purchases and their environmental footprint. With the knowledge that most of Loto-Québec's scratch tickets are FSC-certified, which stands for the Forest Stewardship Council, they can quickly identify its support of responsible forest management. Proper forms of sorting recycled materials help promote the circular economy of post-consumer recycled products. Also, all Loto-Québec products can be recycled, making for a greener local environment and reducing its environmental footprint.
