ITC’s Paperboards and Specialty Papers Division is India's largest, technologically advanced and most eco-friendly, paper and paperboards business.

ITC's Paperboards and Specialty Papers Division (PSPD) is the leader in volume, product range, market reach and environmental performance, and is the clear market leader in the value-added paperboards segment. Providing internationally competitive quality and cost, the Business caters to a wide spectrum of packaging, graphic, communication, writing, printing and specialty paper requirements. PSPD straddles the entire spectrum of paperboards - from 100% virgin, food-grade boards which are made from renewable and sustainable sources to 100% recycled boards.

Each of the manufacturing units specialises in a range of products. Together, these units have capacity close to 825,000 TPA of paper and paperboards that meet stringent quality requirements across the world. The diverse range of products, grades and value-added services are much sought-after by discerning customersfor sustaining and improving their competitiveness. PSPD places a strong focus on partnering customers to co-create and deliver superior solutions, enhancing their competitive advantage.

Furthermore, a dedicated network of regional sales offices, an extensive dealer and agent network in India and across the globe along with close to market finishing and stock holding facilities enable PSPD to reach out to customers faster, and service them better.

The Business' quality philosophy is reflected at every stage - from the selection of high-yielding, vegetatively propagated saplings used for growing pulpwood to world-class manufacturing facilities to the finishing and packing lines.

ITC's commitment beyond the market finds a strong expression in the Social and Farm forestry programmes spearheaded by the business. These programmes help create man hours of employment for the rural poor, besides being a sustainable source of high-quality raw material for the business. PSPD's Research and Development efforts in creating disease resistant, high yielding seedlings help farmers realize greater yields in a shorter time - from land that may be otherwise unproductive. More than 7,33,000acres of planted area stands testimony to PSPD's commitment to sustainable forestry.

PSPD has also been a first-mover in the field of collecting and recycling post-consumer waste from residential localities, corporate and educational institutions through its Wellbeing Out of Waste (WOW) programme. ITC reaches out directly to consumers with its WOW campaign, that has been successfully implemented in select locations across southern India and has plans to expand into other locations across the Country.
