Where to Find CEPI Publications, News and Monitoring Reports

Updated

CEPI (the Confederation of European Paper Industries) publishes its news, policy positions and monitoring reports on its website, cepi.org. The site carries a News section and a Publications section, and the two overlap: items such as the joint letter from Energy Intensive Industries ahead of the 15 October EU Council are filed under both "Energy Transition and Green Deal" and "Publications." If you are looking for a specific document type, the practical route is to start from the News listing for dated announcements and from the Publications tag for formal papers and reports.

What You Can Find on cepi.org

The site's own headings show the main content streams:

Content type Example visible on the site Best used for
News and statements "Letter from Energy Intensive Industries ahead of 15 October EU Council" (dated 14/10/2026) Time-sensitive positions tied to EU decision points
Policy positions "Restoring carbon leakage protection to safeguard the global competitiveness of Europe's Circular Bioeconomy" Understanding CEPI's stance on competitiveness and carbon policy
Monitoring reports "European Paper Recycling Council Monitoring Report 2025 for the European Declaration on Paper Recycling 2021-2030" Annual recycling performance data under the 2021–2030 declaration
Workforce and skills material "FUPROJOB4PAPER: building skills for the future of Europe's pulp and paper sector" Project-level information on sector skills

The topic tags shown alongside items ("Energy Transition and Green Deal," "Publications") indicate how the site groups material, so a document on energy or Green Deal matters will typically appear under both a topic and the Publications label.

How to Locate a Specific Document

  1. Decide what you need. A dated reaction to an EU Council meeting is a news item; a recycling performance report is a publication.
  2. Open the News section for announcements and letters. Check the date line — items are dated, e.g. 14/10/2026 — to confirm you have the current version.
  3. Open the Publications section for reports and formal papers. The recycling monitoring report is the reference point for progress under the European Declaration on Paper Recycling 2021–2030.
  4. Verify the scope. For the recycling report, confirm the year in the title (2025) and the declaration period it covers (2021–2030) before citing figures.

Expected result: you should land on a page that names the document, its date or reporting year, and its topic tag. If a search result lacks a date or year, treat it as unverified and go back to the section listing.

Common Sticking Points

  • News vs. Publications confusion. Some items appear in both. If a search fails in one section, check the other before assuming the document is unavailable.
  • Undated copies. Third-party reposts of CEPI letters often drop the date. Use the dated version on cepi.org when citing.
  • Report year vs. declaration period. The recycling monitoring report is annual, but it measures the multi-year 2021–2030 declaration. Do not read a single year's report as the full-period result.
  • Access terms. The site materials reviewed do not state pricing or login requirements for these pages; confirm access conditions on the page itself rather than assuming open or restricted availability.

Choosing the Right Entry Point

  • Tracking EU policy developments → News, filtered by topic such as Energy Transition and Green Deal.
  • Citing CEPI's official position → Publications, using the full title of the position paper.
  • Benchmarking recycling performance → the European Paper Recycling Council Monitoring Report, checking the year in the title.
  • Sector skills and workforce questions → project pages such as FUPROJOB4PAPER.

For background on what CEPI is and which EU policy areas it covers, the site's own news and publication topics — energy transition, the Green Deal, carbon leakage protection and circular bioeconomy — give a reliable picture of its current focus areas.
