Editorial Policy

Pulp & Paper Chronicle is an independent digital news and industry intelligence publication covering the global pulp, paper, and packaging sectors. This Editorial Policy explains the principles, standards, and processes that guide our journalism and editorial decision-making.

1. Editorial Independence

Pulp & Paper Chronicle operates with full editorial independence. Editorial decisions are made solely by our editorial team and are not influenced by advertisers, sponsors, partners, or external stakeholders.

Any sponsored or promotional content is clearly labeled to distinguish it from independent editorial content.

2. Accuracy and Fact-Checking

Accuracy is central to our editorial mission.

Before publication, our editorial team:

• Verifies information using credible and authoritative industry sources

• Reviews data, statistics, and claims for accuracy and relevance

• Ensures headlines fairly reflect the content of the article

If factual errors are identified after publication, we correct them promptly and transparently.

3. Sources and Attribution

We rely on a range of reputable sources, including:

• Industry experts and analysts

• Company disclosures and official statements

• Market data providers and research reports

• Regulatory filings and public records

Sources are credited whenever possible. Anonymous sources are used sparingly and only when necessary to protect the source or when information cannot be obtained otherwise.

4. Corrections and Updates

Pulp & Paper Chronicle is committed to transparency and accountability.

• Errors are corrected as soon as they are confirmed

• Significant corrections may include an editor’s note or update notice

• Updated articles reflect the most accurate and current information available

Readers are encouraged to report errors by contacting our editorial team.

5. Original Reporting and Content Standards

Our editorial content includes:

• Original reporting on industry developments

• Market analysis and pricing insights

• Coverage of sustainability, technology, and regulatory trends

We do not publish plagiarized content. Aggregated or third-party information is used only when it adds value and is properly attributed.

6. Opinion and Analysis

Opinion and analysis articles are clearly identified and distinguished from straight news reporting. Views expressed in opinion pieces belong to the author and do not necessarily represent the views of Pulp & Paper Chronicle.

7. Use of Artificial Intelligence

Artificial intelligence tools may be used to assist with research, data analysis, or editorial workflows. All published content is reviewed and approved by human editors to ensure accuracy, clarity, and compliance with editorial standards.

8. Ethical Standards and Conflicts of Interest

Our editorial team adheres to high ethical standards, including:

• Avoiding conflicts of interest

• Disclosing potential conflicts when relevant

• Treating individuals and organizations fairly

• Avoiding misleading, sensational, or deceptive headlines

9. Reader Engagement and Feedback

We value reader feedback and constructive discussion. Comments, submissions, and feedback may be moderated to maintain respectful and relevant discourse.
