Australian Paper is an Australian manufacturer of office, printing and packaging papers. The company manufactures more than 600,000 tonnes of paper annually for Australia, New Zealand and other export markets.[1][2] Australian Paper was purchased from Paperlinx by Nippon Paper Industries in June 2009.[3]

Facilities

Australian Paper has two manufacturing facilities: the Maryvale Mill in the Latrobe Valley and a manufacturing facility in Preston.[4] In February 2015 Australian Paper announced the closure of the Shoalhaven Paper Mill in Bomaderry, New South Wales.[5] The mill closed in July 2015.[6] In April 2015, Australian Paper opened a new A$90 million paper recycling plant at the Maryvale Mill. The plant can process up to 80,000 tonnes of wastepaper a year.[7][8][9]

Environmental impact

Australian Paper has a contract with the Victorian Government for the period 1996–2030 of buying wood at a 1996 fixed price on the logs. This includes mountain ash timber, deemed by scientists to be of high conservation value.[10] In August 2011, Australian Paper withdrew from Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certification, in order to be able to use wood from old-growth forest logging by VicForests, but remained under the certification of the Australian Forestry Standard. Their previous auditor, SmartWood, was suspended in September 2011 following an FSC internal audit.[11] Later, the company announced that its FSC certification had been retained for all products except Reflex paper.[12] As of 2013, the Reflex 100% recycled paper is FSC-certified.[13]
