The production of decorative paper in 2023 was 1.41 million tons, a year-on-year increase of 33%, showing a strong growth momentum. It is expected that the production of decorative paper in 2024 will increase by 300,000 tons compared with 2023, further indicating the continued expansion of the industry.
Decorative paper is mainly used for veneer of artificial boards. It has rich patterns, colors and environmental protection characteristics, which can meet the personalized and differentiated decoration needs of consumers. The improvement of its production process and the research and development of new materials have also improved the performance of decorative paper, such as anti-fouling, waterproof, anti-aging, etc.
In addition, the improvement of global environmental awareness has prompted governments to introduce relevant policies to promote the development of the decorative paper industry in an environmentally friendly direction. China has also introduced a series of policies to regulate the development of the papermaking industry and promote the healthy and orderly operation of the decorative paper industry.
