Hokuetsu Paper Mills, Ltd.
 PROFILE
For Hokuetsu Paper Mills, it's all about paper. Established in 1907 to make paperboard from rice, the company has expanded its products to include printing paper such as coated paper and specialty paper. It is also a major producer of white boxboard. Most of Hokuetsu Paper Mills' sales come from selling paper to customers in Japan. The company's four mills are located in Niigata (its flagship mill), Ichikawa City, Hitachinaka City, and Nagaoka. Hokuetsu Paper Mills also cultivates timberland and builds machinery. In an environmentally friendly move, the company is using chlorine dioxide rather than the traditional chlorine gas to produce bleached pulp, improving wastewater color.
