The Paper360° 2020 TOP 50 POWER LIST, Paper360º July/August 2020

Welcome to the 13th Top 50 Power List.

In introducing this Top 50 in 2019, we wrote, “Over the past few years, events and issues, some of which fall outside traditional pulp and paper making, have shown to have increasingly more influence over the industry. This year is no different.”

So what can we say in 2020, as one event has come to overshadow our lives? This is our 13th (which may be fitting, if you are superstitious) compilation and it is like no other. Usually, there is a big, popular event we like to highlight every year that garners a lot of press—soccer’s World Cup, the Olympics, a Royal Wedding—but we will all need to wait until at least 2021 for any of these. Of course, Brexit and the US presidential election will continue to attract attention.

Although we highlight the tissue producers’ donations in the fight against COVID-19, it must be said that all pulp, paper, and board companies that we come across have done their share in trying to help alleviate the consequences of this pandemic, not only to their employees and customers, but to the population at large.

As always, we would like to hear from you as to who we may have missed and why they should be included. You can contact Graeme Rodden or Mark Rushton with your list of who—or what—deserves a spot on Paper360°’s Top 50 Power List.
