Paper Technology

Paper technology involves the science and processes used to produce, manufacture, and improve paper products. It includes understanding how raw materials like wood pulp and recycled fibers are transformed into sheets of paper with desired qualities such as strength, texture, and durability. This field covers everything from pulping, drying, and pressing to coating and finishing techniques, ensuring the final paper meets specific use requirements—whether for writing, packaging, or printing. Advances in paper technology aim to enhance sustainability, efficiency, and product performance while reducing environmental impact.
