Due to its enormous popularity, the company has continued to expand its features and services to better match the needs of its growing membership. Since then, the company has developed the ability to offer sheets of paper and has expanded its paper categories to include a full menu of paper types. “Many of our members wanted us to offer the ability to buy and sell Paperboard and Kraft. With this important update, we now cover just about every paper grade that our customers are looking to transact.” said Mike Conran, CEO, Go2Paper.

The new design includes: • Improved navigation for buying and selling paper • New “Top 10 Most Recent Listings” • New categories of Paperboard, Kraft, and Specialty • Enhanced email notifications • And much, much more… The company will soon release a metric version for international customers.
