Cascades to Close Containerboard Mill

摘要

Cascades will close its Norampac division's containerboard mill located in Burnaby, British Columbia. Cascades is based in Kingsey Falls, Quebec. The Burnaby mill has an annual capacity of 128,000 tons and specializes in the production of 100 percent recycled linerboard, medium and gypsum. Nearly 100 employees will be affected by the closure, which will be effective no later than Dec. 1. The mill's production will be redirected progressively towards other Norampac facilities.
