SCA, Sweden, reportedly has informed employees at its tissue mill in Jönköping, central Sweden, that the plant likely will shut down by year-end. According to a report by papernet.se, all 42 employees at the mill in Jönköping were informed last week that SCA intends to close down the plant. Negotiations with the local unions have already started.
The papernet.se report noted that, according to local media, the mill might be closed before year-end, but that SCA has not revealed an actual shutdown schedule.
The Jönköping mill produces some 25,000 metric tpy of tissue, but does not have converting facilities. It is assumed that SCA wants to concentrate production at the Lilla Edet facility, north of Gothenburg, with a capacity of 110,000 metric tpy. That facility includes a converting plant.
