Pulp Mills

Pulp Mills (SIC 2611) convert wood, recycled fiber, and agricultural residues into market pulp, dissolving pulp, and specialty fibers that feed tissue, packaging, printing paper, and textile-grade cellulose supply chains for publishers, converters, hygiene brands, and global consumer goods companies. Customers include carton and box makers, tissue producers, and specialty chemical firms that rely on tight tolerances for brightness, strength, and purity. Operators face commodity price swings, fiber availability, energy intensity, and compliance with EPA air and water standards, Canadian and EU carbon rules, and forest certification programs, while ESG scrutiny pressures sourcing and wastewater performance. In 2024-2025, demand is shifting toward lightweight packaging, fluff pulp for absorbent products, and dissolving pulp for viscose, with mills investing in biomass boilers, closed-loop water systems, and AI-driven process controls to lift yields and lower emissions.
