Paper Excellence Announces Indefinite Curtailment of Catalyst Paper tiskwat Mill in Powell River, BC

Paper Excellence announced the indefinite curtailment of operations at its Catalyst Paper tiskwat mill.

Despite the best efforts of the mill’s committed team of employees, the facility is simply not viable under the reality of today’s market conditions. Paper Excellence is engaged with our governments and potential partners investigating promising new opportunities that would take advantage of the facility’s unique access to deep water, natural gas, electricity, and water supplies, as well as its existing biomass boiler with power generating capacity, wastewater treatment and solid waste disposal infrastructure.
