Consumer Tissue business in Spain The Navigator Company completed the acquisition of Gomà-Camps Group’s Consumer Tissue business, including the acquisition of Spanish company GOMÀCAMPS CONSUMER, S.L.U. and French company GOMÀ-CAMPS FRANCE SAS (hereinafter referred to as “GC Consumer”).
This acquisition is part of an ambitious plan for diversification and development of the Navigator Group, strengthening the Group’s position as the second largest Iberian producer of tissue, with an annual production capacity that now stands at 165,000 tonnes.
GC Consumer filed total sales volume of EUR 116 million, which joint around 200 million euros of Navigator sales in this business segment in 2022. It is the most modern operation (established in 2005 and further expanded in 2018) belonging to one of Spain’s oldest and most prestigious family-owned companies’ operation for over 260 years in the field of paper production.

Acquiring GC Consumer complements the Group’s current business activities, both industrially and commercially. Adding this new factory should enable a more optimized management of the portfolio of Iberian clients, help boosting new business in Spain, and capture operational synergies in France as a result of its strategic location in Saragossa.
