During the past years increasingly fast pace of global resource development has placed tremendous strains on the earth natural resources. Our ecosystems and environmental conditions around the world are declining which effects our daily lives. The planting of trees and conserving forests plays a critical role in providing important benefits to improving the quality of the earth environment.
Natural wood pulp papers are commonly used for a broad range of communications, packaging, consumer and industrial uses. And since trees are the major raw material for these wood pulp products, our precious forests are being destroyed.
Conserving trees and our forests by using alternative products has been a goal of our RIFO Company. During this time, an enormous commitment of manpower and money has been made to develop synthetic papers to replace natural wood pulp papers. Through this extensive R & D program, RIFO successfully produced high quality, cost-effective synthetic papers.
These synthetic papers are made mainly from polypropylene which give the characteristics such as lower specific gravity, higher stiffness, and good opacity. By offering the needed physical and economic properties our synthetic papers are becoming strong candidates to replace natural wood fiber papers in the marketplace.
