Submitted: The Two Sides Team March 4, 2015

Domtar’s Paper Made Here program aims to raise awareness about the importance of buying North American paper. The program encourages customers, environmental groups, policymakers, and the public to ask themselves: “where does my paper come from?”

Paper Made Here demonstrates why buying North American paper is the most responsible social, economic, and environmental choice – and the best business decision.

Domtar is proud to be a pioneer in sustainability and transparency in the industry, a North American job creator for thousands, an investor in local communities, and a consistently reliable partner to our customers. Click here to download the Paper Made Here factsheet.

As part of the Paper Made Here program, Domtar has created a short documentary, entitled A Portrait on Paper. This documentary, which looks at the life of one of Domtar’s own employees based out of their Marlboro paper mill – is a personal and powerful way to experience and share the Paper Made Here story. The documentary features 20-year Domtar veteran employee. His story is a deeply moving one that shows how North American paper companies, like Domtar, positively impact the lives of North American workers, their families, and their local communities. This story is just one of thousands within the North American paper industry. In fact, the North American paper industry supports hundreds of thousands of jobs and Domtar alone provides nearly 9,000 jobs across North America.
