## Why NORPAC

### Innovation and Experience

NORPAC’s state-of-the-art mill in Longview, Washington, produces more than 750,000 tons of paper annually. The mill’s newest products include cost-effective and environmentally-conscious copy papers for homes and offices.

### Leading Quality and Service

NORPAC has been rated in independent surveys as among the leaders in product and print quality, technical and customer service, and delivery performance. As the most significant West Coast producer of its primary paper grades, the mill can quickly and efficiently meet the needs of discriminating customers across the nation and around the world.

### Advanced Technology

NORPAC lightweight recycled packaging and graphic papers are produced on three world-class paper machines using locally sourced wastepaper and residual wood chips.   In 2022 NORPAC marked the startup of the largest wastepaper recycling facility West of the Mississippi River.  This unique combination of leading-edge technologies enables NORPAC to produce high quality, 100% recycle content unbleached, packaging grades using fibers sourced from the Residential Commingled collection programs.    
Sophisticated systems in the shipping warehouse, heat recovery operations along with internal waste recovery and recycling programs contribute to the quality and environmentally sustainable performance NORPAC customers demand.

### Forward Thinking
