Global Specialty Paper Industry in the Context of Sustainable Development——Exclusive interview with Mr.Ciaran,Vice President of Smithers Americas and Asia Pacific,and Mr.Lu Weibin,Project Director of Smithers Asia Pacific

中华纸业:请介绍一下目前全球特种纸行业的发展状况?Smithers:首先,“特种纸”通常被认为更多的是商业分类而不是造纸行业的技术术语。基于史密瑟斯Smithers在造纸行业有广泛的历史背景和专业知识,我们很早推出了特种纸市场研究报告。与其他纸品不同,特种纸主要目的是增强产品的功能、加工或装饰用途,其特点包括其独特的涂层、添加剂和纸张结构。它们通常生产批量较小,成本效益更高,并且利润也相对更好。

Question:Please introduce the current development status of the global specialty paper industry?Firstly,the term“specialty paper”is commonly considered more of a commercial categorization than a technical one.Smithers has developed a market research report for specialty paper,drawing upon our extensive historical background and expertise in the paper industry.Unlike other commodity papers,specialty papers are designed to enhance the function,processing,or decoration of other products,characterized by their unique coatings,additives,and sheet structures.They are commonly produced in small volumes and are cost-effective with high margins.
