What Does a Paper Mill Represent in an Industrial Year Like 2025?
A paper mill like Arrosi is, above all, a technical engine that supports a wide range of production processes: packaging, boutique bags, bookbinding, industrial applications, parts protection, and converting. Paper is not merely a medium; it is a material that enables and enhances critical activities across multiple value chains.
Throughout this year, specialty papers have once again demonstrated their capacity for adaptation:
- Crepe paper has retained its essential role in protection, cushioning, and applications where controlled elasticity is critical.
- Tissue gauze has improved reinforcement and lamination processes in sectors requiring high material stability.
- Reinforcement papers have supported packaging structures, cases, and bookbinding projects.
- Paper rope has remained key in boutique bag handle manufacturing, where strength, texture, and consistency are crucial.
A productive year is not only measured in tons processed but also in how each technical solution integrates into the operations of those who rely on our materials.
Technical Papers as Partners in Industrial Projects
A specialized paper mill dedicated to crepe paper, tissue gauze, reinforcement papers, embossed paper, greaseproof paper, waxed paper, PE-coated paper, and paper rope stands out for its ability to serve a wide range of industrial sectors. In 2025, these materials have supported protection, handling, reinforcement, cushioning, transport, and finishing processes—proving their versatility and relevance as technical solutions.
Broad Presence Across Multiple Industrial Applications
Over the course of the year, each sector has used technical papers in its own specific way:
Bag Closing and Sewing:
Crepe paper remains a fundamental solution due to its controlled elasticity and adaptability to mechanical sealing. It serves as a cushioning and protective layer in automated sewing systems.
Food Industry:
Waxed paper, greaseproof paper, and PE-coated paper have been essential for indirect food contact, wrapping, dough separation, and protection during transport of baked goods.
Bookbinding:
Reinforcement papers have strengthened spines, improved structural resistance, and ensured dimensional stability in final products.
Packaging:
Crepe paper, embossed paper, and reinforcement papers have been used to protect components, absorb impacts, and enhance logistics, both manually and automatically.
Surfboard Manufacturing:
Certain crepe paper and specialty paper configurations continue to be used in applications requiring conformability, stretch resistance, and adaptability in reinforcement and shaping stages.
Wet Wipes:
Tissue gauze plays a role in reinforcement and lamination processes for products needing durability, wet resistance, and compatibility with liquid formulas.
Electrical Insulation:
Crepe paper for insulation remains a key material in transformers, cables, and electrical equipment due to its mechanical strength and excellent dielectric properties.
Farming and transportation of chickens / pigs:
Crepe paper and selected specialty papers are used as temporary bedding in animal transport and brooding stages, offering absorption, protection, and comfort for early development.
Boutique Bag Manufacturing:
Paper rope and reinforcement papers have been widely used during seasonal campaigns, serving as essential components for handles and inner reinforcements in premium bags.
These applications highlight how technical materials support different sectors, always striking a balance between strength, conformability, absorption, stability, and mechanical performance.
Certified Sustainability: Advancing Responsibly at Every Stage
Sustainability has once again been a decisive theme at year-end. FSC® certification, which guarantees responsible sourcing and forest management, continues to be a cornerstone of Arrosi´s model.
Beyond certification, sustainability is also reflected in:
- The selection of base papers from controlled sources
- Energy optimization in creping and finishing processes
- The environmental benefits of using cellulose-based materials over less recyclable alternatives
- The ability of a paper mill to adapt formats, sizes, and grammages to reduce waste and increase client efficiency
Environmental commitment is not a separate category—it is a guiding principle embedded in every technical decision throughout the year.
Looking Back with Gratitude, Looking Ahead to 2026
Year-end is a time to recognize the value of those who support every stage: clients, suppliers, partners, distributors, and internal teams. In a sector where materials are critical to complex industrial mechanisms, stable relationships are essential for a paper mill to offer precision and continuity.
Looking ahead to 2026, our goal is to remain a reliable industrial partner, offering tailored solutions and technical expertise that anticipates the needs of an ever-evolving market.
The Arrosi team would like to thank everyone who has trusted in our materials, processes, and dedication!
