Chapter Chapter 3 in The Dutch Paper Industry from 1580 to the Present, 2024, pp 43-64 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract This chapter delves into the evolution of the Dutch paper industry during the era of Dutch monarchic liberalism, spanning the years between 1815 and 1914. In the early nineteenth century, the industry faced a period of stagnation attributed to the widespread adoption of steam-powered mills for chemically produced paper throughout Europe and Northern America. While this marked a significant transformation for the Dutch paper industry, transitioning from small-scale, handmade, peasant-based paper manufacturing to the dominance of a large-scale, corporate sector, the establishment of Industria served to sustain Dutch paper production without allowing it to match the industrialization levels seen in neighboring countries.
