The given chart compares the amount of paper, wood and pulp and sawn-wood manufactured in the UK between 1980 and 2000.
It is evident the production of paper & packaging was by far the highest during the research period. In addition, while there was an upward trend in the amount of paper produced, the opposite was seen in other two categories.
In 1980, the amount of paper & packaging produced stood at 230 million which was higher than sawn-wood and wood pulp manufacture, at 200 and 170 million respectively. Over the next 10-year period, while paper production gradually increased by 20 million tonnes, both wood pulp and sawn-wood saw a moderate decline and shared the same figure of 150 million in 1990.
At the end of the research period, a constant fall to 180 million was seen in the sawn-wood manufacture. By contrast, the figure for paper & packaging saw a significant growth and peaked at 350 million in 2000. Meanwhile, wool pulp production increased by around 10 million.
