The global annual production of paper was 382.0 million tonnes in 2006 Paper and Paperboard Production – Global Market, 2002-20 (figures in million tonnes)
The annual global paper and paperboard production was approximately 382.0 million tonnes in 2006. It is expected to increase to 402.0 million tonnes by 2010 and 490.0 million tonnes by 2020.
The global pulp and paper industry consists of about 5000 industrial pulp and paper mills, and an equal number of very small companies.
Broadly, the industry can be classified into two segments:
- Paper and paperboard (writing, printing, packaging and tissue). The writing and printing paper market can be further divided into coated and uncoated segments.
- Newsprint mainly uses for newspapers, flyers, and other printed material intended for mass distribution
The US is the largest market for paper product and commands high per capita consumption. Asia’s main markets are China, Japan, India, Malaysia, Singapore and Thailand.
In 2005, Japan had the highest per capita consumption (247 kg), followed by Singapore (228 kg), Malaysia (106 kg), Taiwan (51 kg) China (42 kg), Indonesia (22 kg) and Philippines (16 kg).
India’s per capita consumption is estimated to be as low as 7.0 kg in 2006.

Asian region is the largest producer and consumer of paper & paperboard in 2006
The US is the largest producer and consumer of paper and paperboard in the world. On a regional basis, Asia emerged as the largest producer and consumer of paper and paperboard in 2006.
The paper and paperboard industry has witnessed a radical shift in last decade.
- Due to the strong economic growth in both China and India, the demand for paper and paperboard is increasing at a fast rate i.e. 8-9%.
- Latin America in the south and Indonesia in the east are emerged as a fibre supplier with a concurrent decline in the North American pulp industry.
North America, Europe and Asia dominate the global pulp and paper industry. Asia, mainly China and India, would emerge as an important market for pulp & paper.
- It is expected that Asian market would account for 60% of global incremental production during the period 2004-2020.
- The share of fast developing Asian markets, excluding Japan, in global consumption is estimated to increase to 34% by 2010 from the 32% in 2006.
- The share of mature markets like North America and Europe would fall to around 50% by 2010 from the 52% in 2006.

In India, around 666 units are engaged in the production of paper and paper-board
India is the 15th largest paper producer in the world. It provides employment to nearly 1.5 million people and contributes INR25.0 billion to the government's exchequer.
In last 55 years, the number of paper mills has increased from just 17 mills in 1951 to more than 666 units engaged in the manufacture of paper and paperboard, out of which nearly 568 are in operation by 2006.
- Capacity utilization of the industry is just 79%, due to old technology. Moreover, 194 mills under the purview of the Board of Industrial and Financial Reconstruction (BIFR) and nearly 60 mills (with a capacity of 1.3 million tonnes is closed).
Indian paper mills can be categorised based on the raw materials - wood/forest based mills, agro-residue based mills and wastepaper-based mills.
- Due to the increasing regulation and raw material prices, the companies are increasingly using more non-wood based raw material over the years. In 2006, around 70 % of the total production is based on non-wood raw material.

Due to high growth rate, Indian paper industry is very attractive for the foreign players Paper and Paperboard - Production in India, 2002-06 (figures in million tonnes)
India is self-sufficient in manufacture of most varieties of paper and paperboards.
- Import is mainly related to certain speciality papers such as light weight coated variety of paper, cheque paper, etc.
- Due to the scarcity of raw material, the companies also need to rely on imported wood pulp and waste paper.
In last 5 years, capacity was increased mainly through expansion and modernisation of the existing facilities rather than setting up greenfield projects.
The per capita consumption of paper in India is very low i.e. 7 Kgs in 2006, as compared to an average consumption of 28 Kgs and 58 Kgs in Asia and world respectively. The per capita consumption is expected to increase to 12 Kgs by 2020.
The domestic paper market is dominated by large players owing to their size, brand value and financial strength. In 2006-07, the top 10 players control around 60% of the market in term of capacity.

It is expected that paperboard would grow at a faster rate within paper industry Paper & Paperboard - Production and Consumption (figures in million tonnes)
Various macro-economic factors like national economic growth, industrial production, promotional expenditure, population growth and the government’s allocations for the educational sector influence the demand for paper
- The growth in paper consumption is directly related to GDP growth in the country. In the past, it has shown the 1:1 relationship with the GDP growth rate.
- With expected GDP growth of 9-9.5%, the demand for Newsprint and Writing & Printing Paper is expected to grow at the same rate.
Continued availability of raw materials would be a big challenge for the industry in the next 5-10 years. According to the Indian Pulp and Paper Technical Association (IPPTA), the paper industry is expected to fall short of demand by 1.1 million tonnes by 2010-11 due to raw material constraints.
According to ITC’s estimates, the total demand for paper is around 8.0 million tonnes and is expected to grow to 10.0 million tonnes by 2012 and 21.0 million tonnes by 2020.
According to Indian Paper Manufacturers Association (IPMA), consumption of paper in India is set to double from the current 7.0 million tonnes per annum by 2015.
