grade mix data
understanding the numbers
In 2024, our sales data was undeniably widespread. With chip saver ribbons acting as our most sold product at 24,560 tons, it surpassed the remainder of our manufactured goods by a landslide, selling nearly five times the amount of chip saver ribbons to chip saver rolls. Dry felt fell second in sales with facer to follow, selling 19,274 tons of dry felt and 18,598 tons of facer, previously our most infamous product. Chip saver roll sales amounted to 5,085 tons with 373 tons of miscellaneous production sold. Although highly inconsistent among individual products, we can conclude a rise in consumer demand regarding chip saver ribbons, as well as establish confidence in our traditional products.
In regard to grade mix data and overall production, some variance occurred within production based on location. Overall, our Maryland location produced 46.2% facer, surpassing our chip saver ribbon production by over 10%. On the contrary, California manufactured over 40% more dry felt than our Maryland location, 15% more than their production levels for chip saver ribbons. Maryland’s lowest manufactured product lied within the chip saver sheets at only 2.2%, while California produced only 4.2% chip saver rolls to determine their minimum. California also produced substantially less facer, amounting to an estimated one third of our Maryland location. However, when discussing large-scale differences in production, our California facility produced nearly eight times the amount of dry felt in comparison to our Maryland location

how we rank…
According to the ENF Paper published directory, Maryland Paper company acts as one of 57 national recycling paper mills actively consuming used fiber. Weighing in as a smaller scale operation, our plant manipulates an estimated 70,000 tons of wastepaper and cardboard into new products annually and runs at an average of 300 feet per minute. This amounts to .0021% of the national consumption total, maximizing the production potential of our mill. The previous 20 years have also indicated a rapid increase in used fiber for production, jumping from 36.6% in 2005 to 37.7% in 2015, then 44.4% in 2024. This is promising in terms of environmental sustainability, as our 30-year operation has undeniably assisted in setting the standard for material inflow. In compliment to that, our mill was the first recycling paper mill constructed in America by an entirely private entity. We are currently adding two new products to our production arsenal and intend our 2026 production data to set company records.
