Packaging

Paper and wood products are essential. From the paper towel to wipe a surface to the packaging protecting your cereal to the paper you wrote your notes on to the lumber used to build your house. 

The industry is using sound science to manufacture a better product. From the best use of resources to investing in new technology, the industry is working to build a better future. 

Paper and wood products have been, are and will continue to be an essential part of life.
