UPM to Close Its Myllykoski Paper Mill

UPM to support the creation of replacement jobs in the Kouvola area

UPM, the Ministry of Employment and the Economy and the City of Kouvola are looking for a new industrial player to occupy the Myllykoski mill. Fields being looked into include bioenergy and the chemicals industry.

UPM will not establish a new business park in Myllykoski, but will continue to develop the nearby Voikkaa Business Park by actively seeking new businesses for the area. The excellent logistics, energy solutions and facilities in the area make the park an optimum location for many different types of businesses.
