Catalyst Powell River has announced an extension to the current curtailment of its paper operations.
The company had originally announced a curtailment from Saturday, July 20, through to Tuesday, August 6. In a bulletin dated Friday, August 2, Krista Cuddy, GM for the Powell River operation, said she regrets to announce the curtailment of PM 10 and 11 will be extended to Monday, August 12.
“The extension is a result of continued weakness in the market,” stated Cuddy in her bulletin.
The steam plant will remain running to support power generation, she added.
The bulletin further states that in conjunction with the company’s sales force, Catalyst will continue to pursue opportunities to grow in more sustainable product lines.
