LORESTAN STONE PAPER
The Lorestan Stone Paper Factory project is one of the most pioneering and innovative industrial projects in Iran, aimed at producing paper from calcium carbonate—completely free of wood and water usage. This project represents a commitment to environmental sustainability and industrial innovation, designed using green technologies and advanced machinery.
The factory is located in Khorramabad’s Second Industrial Town, benefiting from its strategic location near rich calcium carbonate mines, which serve as the core raw material for stone paper production. The design and planning of this project have been made to not only contribute to sustainable and optimized production but also to serve as a model for sustainable industrial practices across the country.
Project Objectives:
• Replacing environmentally harmful technologies with green and eco-friendly industrial processes.
• Efficient and optimal use of domestic natural resources, without relying on external sources.
• Creating national added value through advanced industrial production and innovative technologies.
• Reducing dependency on imported cellulose paper by achieving self-sufficiency in production.
• Enhancing the packaging and printing industries within the country with high-quality paper.
Key Features of the Project:
• Use of advanced stone paper manufacturing technology, which allows for production without the need for water or wood.
• Modern infrastructure with the potential for future expansion and increased production capacity.
• Initial annual production capacity of 20,000 tons, with plans to scale up in future phases.
• Direct employment for 74 skilled and operational staff in the first phase of the project, with new job opportunities created in the future.
• Full compliance with national and international environmental standards, including green industry and sustainable production standards.
This project will not only have a positive and lasting impact on the environment but also, by utilizing local resources and cutting-edge technology, contribute to strengthening the domestic industry and reducing dependency on imports, thus driving economic growth in the region and the country.
