Paper - An Everyday Product

APIC represents the six biggest manufacturers of paper in Australia - and while the company names might not be familiar to you, the products they make certainly would be.

Paper and cardboard products are something we use every day - starting with bathroom tissue and breakfast cereal cartons, to the morning newspaper, to books and paper used at school or in offices.

APIC's member companies make all these products, including:

Tissues, napkins and paper tablecloths (Sorbent, Kleenex, Wondersoft and Deeko);
Cartons (made by Amcor);
Copy paper (Reflex, made by PaperlinX) and
Newspaper (made by Norske Skog).

Recycling services are provided by Visy Recycling.

Paper is an integral part of our daily lives and an important part of the Australian economy.
