Demands on the light weight coated (LWC) papers market are ever increasing due in part to grade competition, changing market conditions, and processing advancements. Productivity, quality, and cost reduction are recurrent goal-related themes among mills as they strive to better serve their markets and sell into those markets in the most appropriate way. The LWC market is becoming increasingly competitive, due to cross competition from coated woodfree and value-added uncoated grades. This market is being driven by a continual need for improved product performance that is cost effective. Meeting the challenge of producing paper quicker, better, and cost effectively will be critical for LWC paper mills to survive in an industry that is mature. This paper reviews major trends associated with the LWC market which is currently in a dynamic state of development.
