“Right time, right place, right people”
– MENCIUS
Written by Mencius a famous Confucian philosopher 2000 years ago, this underpins our history, our values, and our future direction.
Our Time
Futon Paper was established in 1998 amidst the golden era of China’s rapid economic transition when the demand for printing and packaging papers into the country was high. Maximising our connections with leading Korean paper mills, our business began by importing paper to China’s largest wholesalers. As local consumption needs continued to grow, investment in advanced technology and increased production efficiency saw China become one of the top 3 paper producers in the world. As a result, in 2004 our business focus shifted to exporting high quality, locally manufactured paper and paperboard products around the world.
Over two decades of expansion at Futon Paper, we have continuously evolved to adapt to the changing needs of both our clients and the global market. Our passion for paper and service excellence has always remained at the heart of our operation. The recent implementation of the world’s most advanced CRM system, Salesforce, has helped to further enhance our service offerings prepare us for emerging growth and opportunities.
Our Place
Headquartered in Lujiazui, Pudong since our inception in 1998, we are surrounded by Shanghai’s magical skyline of glittering skyscrapers. Fondly known as ‘The Pearl of the East’, Shanghai has undergone an incredible transformation over the past 20 years, and our business has grown and evolved with the city. Our location is within close proximity to our key manufacturing partners which allows us to manage order production with a hands-on approach.
