About Domtar
On the surface, Domtar makes paper. But beyond that, we like to think we make answers. We ask, “What’s possible?” We ask, “What’s important?” We talk to businesses, printers, creatives, and others. We listen. We think. And we ask more questions. The result is much more than a broad, varied collection of paper products — it’s a response to what’s happening in our industry and our society.

So, no matter which Domtar product you choose, you’re making the right call — for your customer, your client, your message, and your story. www.domtar.com www.domtarblueline.com @domtarpaper
