Increasing Specialty Paper Demand from Shipping & Logistic Industry to Aid Sales

E-commerce has developed as a global marketplace for almost all people of the world. Due to worldwide shipping and payments system made user friendly, the e-commerce industry has witnessed tremendous growth in recent years.

Rising e-commerce industry means a surging demand for packaging materials to ship products in all parts of the world.

Biodegradability and Emergence of Nanomaterials to Push Specialty Paper Sales in Untapped Areas

Paper produced by using wood and wood pulp as raw materials is an environmentally friendly product in comparison with plastic. The latter takes a long period to decompose. Molecular structure of specialty paper is very effective to develop newer variants of it, especially according to the requirement of end users.

Nanomaterials of specialty papers make it suitable for making several by-products from the paper itself. Large untapped markets can be a lucrative opportunity for all the key players in the specialty paper market. They can market their products as biodegradable and suitable for several applications.

Technological Upgradation of Paper Manufacturing Process Promises Future Growth

Initially, paper makers produced a large amount of waste as they lacked the right equipment for producing paper. The trash produced can now be used as a basic material to make papers or other commodities, which was previously impossible due to a lack of the necessary technologies.

Development of innovative paper manufacturing equipment has reduced waste in the process of generating paper virtually in half and enhanced productivity for paper makers. Technologically upgraded papermaking equipment would also give paper producers more manufacturing options. Future expansion in the specialty paper market would be ensured by rising industry standards and introduction of technological solutions.
