Volatile is the new normal – at least in the paper and packaging industry, that has been going through major upheavals in recent years. Among those were skyrocketing energy prices, sudden rising demands, severe market swings, disrupted supply chains, exploding raw material prices and an increased skill shortage - just to name a few.
Some of those developments have quickly become an existential threat to many paper manufactures and other players doing business with pulp and paper products. Therefore, staying up to date about the latest industry trends and a realistic assessment of their impacts are very crucial.
Our network has insights throughout the global pulp & paper branch
Over decades, we´ve established worldwide network throughout the pulp and paper industry, that includes many acknowledged experts and high-ranking executives from North America and Europe.

We´re happy to share those deep dives into the international pulp and paper market with you. So, whenever we can, we put our background talks and discussions on tape. And post them here, to provide an insights hub, that can help a branch facing as much turmoil as the international paper industry does at the moment.
Thereby, we focus on two major subjects: The best ways to troubleshoot the latest challenges – and how to use them as a chance to set the right tracks into the future.
