From healthy forests to recycling paper products, the responsible and sustainable use of resources to manufacture the products we rely on is critical. 

The paper and wood products industry is rooted in sustainability. We use sustainable best practices to manufacture products people use every day from renewable resources. 

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. 

Employees at mills across the country safely work every day to make products that play an essential role in the daily lives of Americans. 

We are an industry of dedicated people who manufacture products essential to daily life. We are American manufacturing jobs. 

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

Keep paper and paper-based packaging dry and clean, then place them in the recycling bin. Always make sure you're checking local recycling guidelines so you know what can go in the recycling bin.

Wishcycling is putting something in the recycling bin hoping that it actually gets recycled, but that actually does harm to our recycling system.
