Iberpapel Gestión, S.A. Overview
Pro stress-test →Iberpapel Gestión operates through three divisions: Forestry (eucalyptus plantations in Argentina, Uruguay and Spain), Industrial (bleached pulp and paper production), and Commercial (distribution of printing and photocopy paper, offset paper, light-coated paper, and paper bags). Since its creation in 1935, Iberpapel has consolidated its leading position in the printing and writing paper market in Spain.
Strategic Profile

Competitive Landscape
