...that proposing a New Standard or Technical Information Paper (TIP) is easy?

Do you have just a general idea for a Standard? Or are you further along and have a substantial draft? If you just have a general idea for a Standard or TIP, email us at standards@tappi.org or tip@tappi.org. TAPPI will review your idea and identify an appropriate committee or group to work on your suggestion. If you are further along, send an initial draft to standards@tappi.org. From there, the TAPPI Standards Manager will guide you through the appropriate process to finalize and approve the new document.

Also, did you know 

 ... that to participate in the balloting process for TAPPI Standards you must sign up for the Standard-Specific Interest Groups (SSIGs)? Drafts are available for anyone to review, but to vote and comment you must be a member of the SSIG. Each Standard has its own SSIG – so you have to sign up for each Standard that you have an interest in. Links* to all of the SSIGs (by subject category) can be found on the Subject Category for Standards web page.

Email us at standards@tappi.org to tell us your SSIG of interest!

TAPPI Standards guidelines require that all TAPPI members receive notification of any proposed new Standard or TIPs. This message is being sent to you because you are a TAPPI member; have purchased TIPs or Standards products from TAPPI; or because you have previously expressed interest in this topic.

TAPPI is the leading technical association for the worldwide pulp, paper and converting industry.
