The company primarily utilizes wood fiber—including chips, sawdust, and logs—as its main raw material. It owns or leases wood chipping facilities to support its wood fiber supply and reduce costs. Approximately 5% of its annual pulp requirements are sourced externally to supplement internal production. The company employs various chemicals such as caustic, polyethylene, starch, sodium chlorate, latex, and specialty process paper chemicals, some of which are petroleum-based or influenced by petroleum prices. Energy consumption includes electricity, hog fuel, steam, and natural gas, with most energy produced internally using carbon-neutral biomass, supplemented by purchased natural gas and electricity under supply contracts. Freight costs represent a significant expense and are influenced by fuel prices, miles driven, and line-haul rates. Product development efforts focus on innovative paperboard solutions, including lightweight folding carton paperboard, compostable food service products, biodegradable barriers and coatings, unbleached paperboard options, and alternative fibers containing up to 35% post-consumer recycled content.
