The paper industry in India began with the establishment of the first paper mill at Srirampur City of West Bengal in 1812. Since then, the industry’s manpower, knowledge, infrastructure, and technology have seen various growths and changes. In the beginning, the paper industry relied primarily on cutting wood and bamboo for papermaking. However, the focus has shifted to more novel methods like recycling, and using old and waste paper, with time. The paper industry in India is going to resist a nosedive in the future since it’s unending due to the country’s demography, job opportunities, and builds the economy. Therefore, the paper industry has become one of the fastest-growing industries in India.
The paper industry forms a large manufacturing segment in India and the total share of the country in the paper market at the global level is five percent. As per the reports, the per capita paper consumption in India is 15 kilograms which is much less than the global average of 57 kilograms.
The change in lifestyle both rural and urban owing to increasing literacy rates, and high disposal incomes has fuelled higher growth and the paper industry has a reasonably bright prospect in India with an expected growth rate of 6-8 percent per annum.

This necessitates the use of recycled waste paper to alleviate the effects. The process of recycling protects the environment and recycled paper is the greenest option available since it utilizes less energy, water, produces lower carbon emissions, and reduces the amount of waste in landfill.
