We embrace change in the printing industry, and also drive it.  As a market leader in graphical paper, we have the most modern machines in the industry. We also utilize digital solutions to boost our operational efficiency and improve how we work with our customers. Such forward thinking is key to our commitment to both paper and setting the highest sustainability standards. The UPM Group is a leading user of recovered paper in graphic paper production – just one sign of our reliable leadership in paper.

Through bigger acquisitions, like the German Haindl Group (2001) and the Myllykoski Group (2011), UPM further strengthened its position in the European market for graphic papers and reinforced its portfolio in the area of recycled fibres.

UPM expressed its commitment to sustaining its global graphic paper business by naming the business area into UPM Communication Papers in 2018. The name underlines the industry focus and the global reach of the business area. It further builds on the view, that printed products will remain a reliable and trusted communication channel, even over the long-term.
