Spanish tissue manufacturer Gomà-Camps reported revenue of €100 million in its latest fiscal year, supported by its recycled tissue paper production strategy, which now accounts for approximately 60% of its manufacturing volume. The company expects to achieve similar results this year, backed by growing demand for sustainable solutions in the professional tissue market.
Founded in 1758 and headquartered in La Riba, Spain, Gomà-Camps entered the recycled tissue paper business in 1986, a move that has become a cornerstone of its long-term growth strategy. Over the years, the company has transitioned from producing writing paper and cigarette paper to manufacturing tissue products for the hospitality, food service, industrial and healthcare sectors.
Today, around 60% of the company’s production is based on recovered fibers, primarily sourced from paper and cardboard collected through recycling systems and industrial recovery channels. The remaining output is manufactured using certified virgin pulp obtained from sustainably managed forests.
According to CEO Laia Gomà-Camps, nearly four decades of experience have enabled the company to develop a high level of expertise in processing recycled fibers, strengthening its ability to supply products with a lower environmental footprint.
In addition to its paper mill in La Riba, Gomà-Camps operates a converting facility and a logistics center in Vilaverd, employing approximately 270 people. Alongside supplying tissue products to the professional market, the company also provides parent reels to other tissue converters.
Exports remain a key component of the manufacturer’s business strategy. International sales of finished products and parent reels currently account for 22% of total revenue, supporting the company’s presence in several international markets, including countries in North Africa.
Looking ahead, Gomà-Camps plans to expand its portfolio of recycled tissue papers, improve production efficiency and invest in new circular economy initiatives to meet the increasing demand for more sustainable tissue solutions.
