In the Spotlight: Hideki Fujiwara - Singing the Praises of Membership

TAPPI member Hideki Fujiwara, Ph.D., has hit a lot of high notes in his long and illustrious career in the pulp and paper industry. Not the least of which occurred as a result of his nearly three decades of membership, including being the first member from Asia to be honored with the Charles W. Engelhard Coating and Graphics Arts Division award.

Dr. Fujiwara, who retired in June after 38 years in the industry, spent the majority of his career with Nippon Paper, serving in a variety of managerial positions. He credits his active involvement in TAPPI with providing ample opportunities not only to receive, but to share technical ideas and innovations with other professionals from around the world. Membership helped broaden his view of the forest products industry, and he notes that "joining TAPPI was the very first step to being a real professional in this field."
