Our story
SWM International, a privately owned company, officially began as a spin-off from the Kimberly-Clark Corporation in 1995.
However, our roots go back to 1545 with the opening of our first paper mill in the south of France.
In the decades that followed, we expanded our global paper operations, opening key locations across Europe, North and South America, and in China.
We were pioneers in the paper industry, innovating and adapting to the changing world around us.
Our papers and botanical solutions are now used in a broad range of products, applications and industries every day, all around the world.
Our teams of experts, located on four continents, continue to adapt and innovate to meet the needs of our customers and the constantly evolving markets they supply.
Working alongside our key partners, we continue to push the boundaries of innovation, exploring new ways to make our products more intelligent, safer and more sustainable.
