Pirabase Database
Pirabase is a complete information service for companies operating in the print, packaging, and paper supply chains. It is compiled and written by Pira's team of expert editors who scan a wide range of regular trade and technical journals, market reports, conference proceedings, magazines, press releases, newspapers, newsletters and websites translated from 20 languages into English. Visit the Pirabase site.
The publications cover all major western European and Asian languages. The Pirabase team are briefed to find the most important global business and technical developments across the three industries and then summarise in easy-to-read articles of around 250 words.
Pulp and paper coverage is provided by Paperbase International, a partnership bringing together expertise from four leading pulp and paper institutes: CTP (France), KCL (Finland), Pira International (UK) and STFI-Packforsk (Sweden). Visit the Paperbase site
Pirabase produces around 1800 new summarised articles per month across the supply chain. The web-based archive contains over half a million articles.
Around 500 publications are scanned worldwide.
Online archive for your industry
You can get unmetered access to the complete Pirabase archive of more than 600,000 articles spanning over 30 years. This enables subscribers to search and retrieve all Pirabase articles, relating to a specific technology, company or market.
The database complements current awareness services and newsletters, as it provides you with a ready made research device, which can be used to gain more detailed or historical knowledge of a company, technology or market. You can gain information on :
- markets and technologies
- year-on-year comparisons of installations, company results, new patents or market activity
- Find intelligence on specific target customers, suppliers or competitors
- Research legislation and amendments
- market or technical trends over variable periods of time
In many cases, the summary should be sufficient information on its own. However, Pira can provide the full text (in the original language)by fax or photocopy within 24 hours of receipt of order. To order, use the online ordering system embedded within the database.
