China is the world’s largest producer of paper and paperboard, with a production volume of 123.2mn tonnes in 2016. The sector accounts for 0.5% of China’s total fixed asset investment and 1.4% of its industrial employment. The paper manufacturing sector in China can be broadly divided into two subsectors, manufacturing of pulp, paper and paperboard, and paper products manufacturing.
