Countries
BOSTON, Sept. 29 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --
RISI, the leading information provider for the global forest products industry, today announced the publication of
the New Annual Review of Global Pulp and Paper Statistics. This new release includes two years of historical data
for fiber, paper and board production, imports, exports and apparent consumption by region and country. The NEW
Annual Review has been crosschecked and standardized by RISI economists, ensuring more balanced, and
harmonized data than in previous editions. The 2009 Edition is consistent, easily comparable and more reliable
than ever before.
Rod Young, RISI's Chief Economic Advisor said, "This is significant improvement from previous releases of
aggregated raw data. Indeed, each country around the world was checked and verified for accuracy by a RISI
regional economist, and when data were missing or seemingly inaccurate, we contacted mills and local data
sources to complete missing data and verify accuracy." He continued, "The New Annual Review now represents
the most comprehensive and complete collection of recovered paper, pulp, paper, and board statistics by country
for the entire world."
The New Annual Review 2009 edition includes:
-- Two years of essential country-by-country statistics
