1 STRUCTURAL COMPONENTS CHALLENGE GREEN Not only do we rethink fiber use to reduce overall costs and enhance performance, but it is also part of core values to do it in a way that has the least impact on the environment. With, you are closing the loop. INDUSTRIAL PACKAGING THROUGH PERFORMANCE AND GREEN INNOVATION ENVIROPAC BERTHIERVILLE ENVIROPAC HPM MULTI-PRO STRENGHT Versus WEIGHT

2 GPS proposes a range of ultralight, high-performance structural components. develops purpose-designed paperboard structural components. With less fiber and more performance, FiberSmart Technology enables to strategically help numerous manufacturers face today s product weight and environmental challenges. Rethinking structural components is our expertise. FURNITURE COMPONENTS offers RTA and mail-order furniture manufacturers Technicomb, a honeycomb core that is a superior quality, lightweight alternative to heavy solid materials. The combinations of possibilities and applications are almost infinite. builds to spec Multiboard decorative and plain backings, as well as drawer bottoms. The cost-effective, ultralight alternatives to traditional materials. DOOR & PARTITION COMPONENTS designs and manufactures Technicomb, a paperboard honeycomb cell structure. It is the ideal replacement of solid filling material for door cores and partition. also provides the construction industry with Multiboard, a laminated multilayered paperboard construction used for interior paneling and the manufacturing of insulation / acoustical boards. The high strength-to-weight ratio alternatives. AUTOMOTIVE COMPONENTS FiberSmart Technology works hand-in-hand with the automotive component technology. Less component weight means less fuel consumption. Through advanced work on fiber technology, creates components that meet this technical challenge. The eco-friendly, FiberSmart solution to excess weight. INDUSTRIAL PACKAGING THROUGH PERFORMANCE AND GREEN INNOVATION
