Press Release
22 October 2009
Sappi Finland I Oy begins consultations at Kangas mill in response to market
conditions and lower demand in coated magazine paper
In response to the reduction in European consumption of coated magazine paper
arising from the global recession it is apparent that the industry is
experiencing overcapacity. Sappi has taken a substantial amount of commercial
downtime since the beginning of the year in response to a reduction in demand.
Sappi Finland I Oy has today announced that it will enter into a consultation
process with its Kangas mill employee representatives. The aim of this process
is to identify the best way of improving company profitability, which may
include a full closure of Kangas mill. The continued level of downtime is no
longer considered viable and it is therefore necessary to review production
capacity. Possible redundancies would be implemented by the end of the year
2009.
The Sappi Finland I Oy's, Kangas site employs around 150 employees. Sappi
employs around 800 people in Finland.
In the event that the Kangas mill ceases production the Galerie Silk range would
be supplied to customers from the Sappi Lanaken mill in Belgium. Sappi would
also launch a complementary grade, Galerie Fine Silk, from Sappi Finland I Oy's,
Kirkniemi mill thereby widening the customer offer of its coated magazine paper
range while ensuring that there is no supply interruption.
Kangas mill, has the capacity to produce 210,000 tonnes of coated magazine paper
annually. The consultation does not concern Sappi Finland I Oy's Kirkniemi mill
and its Sales Office.
