The goverment provides regulation to ensure the sustainability of the industrial activity both the process of importing recycled paper and internal regulation to increase local raw materials. The objectives of the research were to study the chosen raw material for recycling paper industry, and to analyse position strategy of consumption raw material for recycling paper industry in Indonesia. This research used a qualitative description method by AHP and SWOT analysis. The data were obtained from interview, study literature, and distributed quistionnaire to paper industry, paper researcher, and relevant agencies. Based on AHP, strongth criteria to choosen raw material is regulation and availability of raw material with value 0,323 and 0,243, and alternative choosen is recycled paper raw material import. The result SWOT analysis, recycled paper industry in Indonesia, have IFAS 0,03 and EFAS -0,02. Thats showed position in quadran II, diversivication the raw material from import to local (recycled paper or non wood alternative). The goverment and relevant agencies to coorporate through the suport and regulation of raw material for recycling paper industry.
