Thailand paper and pulp production mix by segment
Packaging ~65%
Thailand's paper-and-pulp production mix is dominated by packaging grades (corrugated medium, kraftliner, testliner, white-top liner) at roughly 65% of installed capacity, per FTI Paper Industry Club and SCGP segment disclosures. Fibres (market pulp, including Phoenix Pulp's eucalyptus BHKP for export) account for about 25%, with specialty grades — tissue, container board, printing/writing, food-grade — making up the remaining 10%. The mix reflects two structural drivers: e-commerce containerboard demand (cyclical but secular up) and the regional fibres play from FSC-certified eucalyptus plantation.
