Published by Fabio Perini S.p.A., the first issue of the publication (dated back to 1979, printed under the name Perini News Sheet) represented a house organ for the company, and was aimed at supplying useful information on the tissue market.

It was published in bilingual form (Italian and English) and delivered to recipients on a worldwide scale.

Growth of the tissue industry in the 1980s led the company in 1989 to transform its original publication into the first trade magazine dedicated exclusively to the tissue and related fields: the Perini Journal – PJL.

Today the magazine, published twice a year in 20,000 copies, is an independent trade publication.

The Perini Journal is sent directly to over 17,500 contacts contained in a mailing list covering a distribution network that reaches Europe, Canada, USA, South America, Asia, Africa, Australia and New Zealand.
