Innovation

Research and development at Georgia-Pacific affects every aspect of our business. It enables us to constantly improve our operations to create the best products on the market, and it makes our facilities safer, easier and more efficient places to work.

Advances in technology, for instance, improve our manufacturing processes, from the best use of fiber to paper-making and converting techniques. Recently, we implemented new paper-making technology in Europe and achieved outstanding product quality in terms of softness and strength. At Georgia-Pacific, new technology goes hand in hand with consideration for environmental impact. Research and development is focused on creating products that support sustainable practices, including reductions in energy consumption, careful fiber selection and more.

Georgia-Pacific in Europe is permanently in touch with the Georgia-Pacific research center in the US. Research and development is not only a European concern – it is very much a global challenge.
