纸工业界1979年度的生产量是6430万吨,达577亿美元。大约分二类:纸45％,厚纸46％,其他9％。目前,纸与塑料在包装方面,电子工业与情报方面在互相竞争着。塑料向包装事业的发展是惊人的,占纸领域的10％,厚纸占25％。今后,虽然速度有所降低,但仍向此方向发展,亦可认为采用塑料和纸、塑料和厚纸新的包装方法。纸的最大用途是用于包装,占全消费量的44％,是出版、印刷的34％;文具用品等用9％,建筑用9％,卫生用5％,工业用2％。纸的价格差不多,因没有能大量代替纸的物质,则出现经济膨胀,纸的消费也一定增加,若根据提出此调查报导的古拉恩公司的计算,则每GNP(国民经济总产值)增 The paper industry’s production in 1979 was 64.3 million tons, which amounted to 57.7 billion US dollars. About two categories: paper 45%, thick paper 46%, other 9%. At present, paper and plastics are competing with each other in the electronics industry and intelligence. The development of plastics to the packaging industry is staggering, accounting for 10% of the paper sector, and thick paper accounting for 25%. In the future, although the speed has been reduced, it is still going in this direction, and it can also be regarded as a new packaging method using plastics, paper, plastics, and thick paper. The largest use of paper is for packaging, accounting for 44% of total consumption, 34% for publishing and printing; 9% for stationery, 9% for construction, 5% for hygiene, and 2% for industry. The price of paper is similar, because there is no material that can replace paper in large quantities, the economic expansion will occur, and the consumption of paper will also increase. If according to the calculation of Gurion, which is reported in this investigation, the per-GNP (national economic output value) increases.
