Sonoco, Hartsville, S.C., USA, reports that it will begin offering semi-chemical corrugating medium to the marketplace from its Hartsville mill, beginning on January 1. Sonoco has been manufacturing medium through its No. 10 machine at Hartsville since 1957, according to Jim Bowen, senior VP, Primary Materials Group. "Our mills and our skilled papermakers have an excellent reputation for quality and service, and we are well positioned to serve much of the U.S. as well as select export markets." Hartsville's No. 10 machine has 170,000 tons of annual capacity, and for the past 52 years has offered that capacity exclusively through contract relationships. "We believe the market is now ready for a proven, independent, and financially sound producer in the Southeast, and we're excited about our opportunity to take on that role," Bowen said.
