Research & Development

Research and Development at Georgia-Pacific affects every part of our business. It gives us better products that aim at creating the best products in the market. It makes our facilities safer, more efficient and easier places to work.

Advances in technology, for instance, improve our manufacturing processes, from the best use of fibre to papermaking and converting. Recently we implemented new papermaking technology in Europe to achieve outstanding product qualities such as softness and strength. At Georgia-Pacific, new technology goes hand in hand with consideration for environmental impact. Research and Development is focused on developing products that support sustainable practice, including reduction in energy consumption, fibre selection and more.

Georgia-Pacific in Europe is permanently in touch with colleagues at the Georgia-Pacific research centre in the United States. Research and Development is not only focused on Europe - it is a global challenge.
