Business
Daelim Paper Co., Ltd. is a South Korea-based industrial manufacturing company primarily engaged in the production and distribution of corrugated packaging base papers and containerboard products. Founded in 1984 and headquartered in Pyeongtaek-si, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea, the company operates as an integral member of the Daeyang Group paper packaging consortium alongside affiliates such as Shin Daeyang Paper Co., Ltd. The company operates through specialized business segments encompassing corrugated base paper manufacturing, recycled fiber processing, and industrial energy supply. Its core product portfolio comprises corrugated medium paper, including standard fluting and high-strength water-resistant fluting; linerboard products, consisting of kraft linerboard, testliner, and multi-ply containerboard; specialty industrial paperboards engineered for compression strength and packaging durability; recovered paper pulp derived from sorted old corrugated containers; and auxiliary industrial utilities, including high-pressure process steam generated through eco-friendly waste heat recovery systems. Daelim Paper supplies its base paper materials primarily to domestic and regional corrugated sheet and box converters, serving diverse end markets such as e-commerce logistics, agricultural product packaging, processed food and beverage distribution, consumer electronics, and industrial manufacturing goods. Geographically, the company concentrates its manufacturing and operational infrastructure in South Korea while maintaining export distribution channels across the Asia-Pacific region. In recent developments, Daelim Paper has implemented strategic operational upgrades and capacity optimizations across its Pyeongtaek manufacturing facilities to increase energy efficiency and expand output of high-performance, low-basis-weight corrugated mediums designed to meet sustainable, lightweight packaging requirements. To mitigate raw material price volatility and advance circular economy objectives, the company has enhanced its waste paper sourcing network through coordinated supply arrangements with group affiliates and invested in automated closed-loop wastewater treatment and heat-recovery boiler systems. Furthermore, Daelim Paper has expanded its value-added product offerings with specialized moisture-resistant and high-burst-strength paperboards tailored for automated cold-chain logistics and heavy-duty shipping containers.
