Wausau Paper plans to combine its specialty products business and its printing and writing business into one strategic operating unit.
The new business will be called Wausau Paper Mills LLC and will include production plants in Rhinelander, Brokaw and Mosinee in Wisconsin and the Brainerd, Minn facility. The plants manufacture printing and writing papers and technical specialty papers.
The new unit will be led by Henry Newell as senior vice president. Newell is now the senior vice president of printing and writing business.
The firm's towel and tissue business unit (produces "away from home" towel and tissue products) will not be involved with this consolidation.
Earlier this year we reported that Wausau Paper closed a paper mill in Jay, Maine, and a converting facility in Appleton in order to cut costs; these remain shuttered.
