Still some unanswered questions at the end of our interviews, delphi
survey, and research
These were addressed by
creating 3 future scenarios for
consideration…

Recycling
What if recycling became mandatory?
What if all products were required – by law – to be composed of a highpercentage recycled material?

What if traditional ‘made to stock’ products were no longer profitable?
What if ALL products needed to be designed and produced uniquely, with the customer?
What if the industry had to dothis with todays infrastructure?

Paper is a part of our lives and will continue to be so for the foreseeable future.
The technical advancements in production leaves most other industries far behind.
Now papermaking is an industry undergoing transformation… perhaps even more so in
the coming twenty years.
Papermaking may soon be about more than just paper, packaging, and tissue. Paper
may one day be known to have created a bio-based world, where everything in it comes from sustainable source and everything is
recycled.
Whichever direction the future takes us, we hope that we have inspired you to actively
think forward!
