PIAC Logo

The Paper Industry Association Council (PIAC) is comprised of 25 allied paper product associations representing the major manufacturers and providers of paper based communications and packaging products. PIAC functions as an information-sharing body as well as an umbrella organization for issue-based advocacy, grassroots, and coalition building.

The scope and diversity of PIAC adds strength and increased leverage on common issues because of its expertise and size, and also presents unique and exciting opportunities to move forward as a unified body.
