Domtar Slices Paper Capacity
MONTREAL—Domtar Corp. announced it is permanently closing its Canadian paper mill in Gatineau, Quebec, and a converting center in Ottawa. The company is also shutting down paper machines at its Woodland mill in Baileyville, ME, and its Port Edwards, WI, mill. The moves stem from a review of Domtar’s overall production capacity. The company cited excess capacity and cost. Roughly 150 jobs will be lost at the Woodland mill and 30 at Port Edwards.
