The company is located along the St. Joseph River and since 1922 it has sourced its electricity from its own renewable hydroelectric power plant at the Niles, Michigan dam. French Paper also makes the majority of its papers using recycled fibers making it a very environmentally conscious manufacturer.

French Paper is well known amongst the graphic design industry due largely in part to its long standing relationship with CSA Design and the promotional materials it creates.
