Congratulations to the PPI Awards 2011 Winners!
Organized by RISI, the leading information provider for the global forest products industry, the PPI Awards program honors leadership, vision, innovation and strategic accomplishments within the pulp and paper industry. The PPI Awards are the only global awards dedicated to recognizing the achievements of companies, mills and individuals in the pulp and paper sector. Click here to find more about the PPI Awards.
Launched in 2009, the inaugural PPI Awards were a celebration of the best in class and provided an opportunity for pulp and papermakers worldwide to show off their achievements on a global platform. Based on the positive feedback in 2009, RISI decided to make the PPI Awards program an annual event. The PPI Awards 2010 were held in Brussels, Belgium and gathered together participants from around the world, including representatives from the major pulp and paper companies and suppliers in the industry.
