Welcome and thank you for visiting the website of the NAPM

The National Association of Paper Merchants has been the only accredited trade association for paper and board merchants and wholesalers since it's foundation in 1920.  

No trade or industry of true standing can be without its own association or federation and the existence of our association, fully supported by the overwhelming majority of merchant companies in the UK, creates status and credibility to the paper merchanting sector.  

In turn, membership acts as a hallmark of professional competence and business integrity.

The NAPM's primary purpose can be simply stated as:

"Promoting the Value of the UK Paper and Board Merchant"

All trade associations base their activities on the principle that more can be achieved by a single organisation acting on behalf of its many members than by any of those members acting individually.  

The NAPM is able to act and speak with all the power provided by being the sole representative of some 22 companies which in itself represents the overwhelming majority of the paper merchanting sector within the UK.

Please note that the NAPM is not commercially active, that means that we do not sell, purchase or produce paper or paper related materials, but please don't hesitate to contact our members.

PLEASE NOTE: The "NAPM" logo is a Registered Trade Mark under No. 2452299 dated 12th April 2007
