Quality of our customers :
having supplied printers and publishers during all market situations for nearly two decades without discontinuity, has given Copap the opportunity to establish close partnerships while fulfilling both customers' and paper mills' requirements. 

 

Quick reaction to market changes:
being present wherever paper is made and consumed helps Copap to forecast the fluctuations in supply and demand. This expertise allows us to benefit from partnerships with major suppliers and also allows us to provide our clients (printers, publishers, converters, industrial groups) with maximum insight into the market's evolutions.

 

Financial equation:
competitiveness, quality, security and availability are the foundations of Copap's approach to the market. But the Group also boast solid financial structure, well established and recognized as such by all its commercial and financial partners.

While Copap promises to offer peace of mind to its customers, it also aims to protect its suppliers from the uncertainties of international trade. Foreign sales, at times, can involve financial risk. By underwriting specific insurance coverage and signing agreements with the financial institutions that provide the Group with the necessary lines of credit, Copap assumes full financial responsibility of all its transactions and protects suppliers against any default payment related losses. The benefits offered by pulp and paper mills in exchange for this kind of security allow Copap to provide its clients with excellent buying conditions.

 

Our people :
As an ongoing strategy to be close to and better serve clients, Copap maintains offices in various countries and is continually reviewing the potential for new offices in the marketplace. Each of our offices are run by local and highly experienced pulp and paper professionals supported by a technical staff. This strategy benefits our clients as we notice a trend to less local contacts by paper manufacturers as a direct result of consolidations in the industry.
