Shareholders & shareholders' committee
Our shareholders
The Modellfabrik Papier is an initiative of the paper industry. It unites paper manufacturers, suppliers and plant manufacturers who are working determinedly towards the climate targets for 2045 and driving change. The significant reduction of the energy required for paper production is not only a social obligation, but also an economic necessity. Energy efficiency and the conservation of resources are inextricably linked with securing the future of the industry. Our approach? The development of disruptive technologies in close collaboration with science. Through research to progress.
The Paperindustry at one table
What makes our innovation network so unusual is that it brings together a cross-section of the German paper industry at one table – from medium-sized companies to global market leaders. This is where technical know-how and comprehensive industry knowledge come together.
