UPM announced that it will temporarily shut down UPM Kaukas pulp mill as of August 3 for approximately six weeks. In addition, a potential temporary shutdown of the UPM Pietarsaari pulp mill is being planned for October.

The Kaukas pulp mill is located in Lappeenranta in South East Finland. The pulp mill has the capacity to produce 700,000 tonnes per year of softwood pulp on two production lines. The mill site also consists of a paper mill (shutdown in 4Q 2025), a sawmill, a biorefinery producing wood-based diesel and UPM’s research centre.
