APP affiliate Paper Excellence buys another Canadian pulp mill

摘要

Paper Excellence Canada, a holding company affiliated with Sinar Mas and Asia Pulp & Paper (APP), has signed on to buy Northern Pulp's Pic-tou mill in Nova Scotia. A source from Paper Excellence confirmed that the acquisition would likely see much of the mill's 270,000 tonnes/yr of bleached softwood kraft pulp exported for sale on the Asian market, or for use at APP's paper and board mills in China and Indonesia.
