You might know a little about paper making, you might know a lot. At Sappi, we are experts at producing paper and packaging materials from one of nature’s most abundant, renewable and versatile raw materials – trees. We’ve created Arboro, a board game that tells a story about paper, the paper industry and its role in creating a sustainable future for us all. We hope you’ll see paper in a new light – as a valuable natural resource that benefits all of us.

Are you ready to play and make some paper?
You’re an employee at a paper company, ambitious to make the most profit and become ‘Papermaker of the Month’. Managing your resources and general productivity is key. You’ll also need to manage the papermaking process, something that requires attention to detail, whether planting trees or manufacturing paper. Too much focus on one area can create inconsistency, so you’ll need to keep a balanced view.
Although every player is competing to be the best, player actions are connected, so you must also work together to sustain the circular economy. No pulp means no paper, no planting means no trees, and so on. Meanwhile, don’t forget that everyone needs access to essential resources such as water and energy.
Taking the right actions can benefit everyone, and doing good feels good too.
