 INTRODUCTIONS

The Pulp and Paper Industry produces a great number of paper and other
celllulose based fibre products. The total quantity of cellulose-based producst
consumed every year world-wide exceeds 360 millions tonnes. Newspapers,
copy papers, various types of tissue, bottle labels, cigarette papers, and coffee
filters are just a few examples of product regularly used in our everyday life.
 PAPER PRODUCTS AND USAGE

The paper consumed can be divided into five main segments based on end-
use:

Printing &
Newsprint Tissue
Writing

Container Other paper

board & paperboard
 PULP AND PAPER SUPPLY CHAIN

This is the forest industry supply chain in making of Pulp and Paper.
 PRODUCING A PAPER

We have three major processes in making a paper:

Harvesting

Pulp Making

Paper Making
 HARVESTING

The harvesting consists of the following major stages.

• The trees are cut and branches are removed. Thereafter the tree is bucked
(or cross-cut) into logs (with specific dimensions and quality). This process
is typically done directly at harvest areas.
• Logs are transported from harvest areas directly to mills or through
intermediate storage at terminals.
• The harvesting is done by a set of harvest crews and the transportation by
one or several transport companies. The overall harvest and transportation
planning is often integrated.
 PULP MAKING

The pulp making process involves the following steps:

• Conversion of pulp logs to chips. Chips from different species are mixed
according to recipes with sawmill chips depending on the pulp quality
produced.
• The chips are boiled and washed. Here, the fibres and lignin are
separated.
• The fibres are then in a number of steps where chemical is added bleached
in order to produce fibres with a certain brightness.

This is a continuous process where the time from chipping to production of

pulp is about 12 hours.
 PAPER MAKING

The later paper making process involves the following major stages:

• Fixed width reels of a given paper grade, also referred to as jumbo rolls,
are produced on a paper machine.
• The reels are put on a winder and sliced into several rolls of smaller
diameters and widths (trimming). The part of the reel not cut into rolls is
trim loss.
• Finally, the rolls are shipped to customers, or converted into cut-sheet
finished products on a sheeter, which may also generate some trim loss.
The rolls sheeted into finished products are known as parent rolls.
