In 600 AD, this industry reached Japan and after years of war, it was brought to Iran by Chinese prisoners. Initially, paper was made by crushing tree bark or papyrus fibers and adding flax stalks, but after many years of trial and error, they realized that trees with needle leaves were more suitable for making paper than broadleaf trees because they had longer fibers and softer wood. However, both types of coniferous and broadleaf trees are used in this industry. What are the most suitable trees for making paper? Trees such as pine in its various types, eucalyptus, spruce, oak, poplar and bamboo are suitable for making paper. However, pine trees such as fir, fir and beech are most used for this purpose.
