Russia's largest newsprint maker
Kondopoga is resuming production on its 110,000 tonne/yr PM 9.
The PM is set to restart tomorrow.
"By April, Kondopoga will
be running three of the six existing newsprint machines. Most of the output on
PM's 8 and 9 is meant for the export market," the spokesperson said. He
added that it is unclear at the moment whether the management intends to restart
the mill's three remaining paper machines.The PM is set to restart tomorrow.
The
750,000 tonne/yr Kondopoga mill halted production on five paper machines over
November/December 2012 following financial difficulties due to tough market
conditions and low profitability. By early 2013, the firm had accumulated over
Rouble 10 billion ($330 million) in debts.
