Groveton, New Hampshire, paper mill closure will cut 105K of Uncoated Free Sheet capacity. Wausau Paper, based in Mosinee, Wis., employs 3,200 people at 11 facilities in seven states. It announced the Groveton mill closure when it released its third-quarter report.
Wausau's printing and writing division reported an operating loss of $1.3 million. Two years ago, Groveton Paperboard, which produced corrugated material and shared space with Wausau, shut down, leaving more than 100 workers stranded. Wausau was left to operate the building on its own, which added to its costs. The company will continue to produce printing and writing grades at its Brokaw, Wisconsin and Brainerd, Minnesota mills.
In 2001, other New Hampshire paper mills were shuttered including Berlin, Gorham and Contoocook.
Paper.com has all the popular Wausau products in stock and ready for immediate shipment.
