Paper Excellence Canada announced the curtailment of operations at its pulp mill in Mackenzie, British Columbia targeting the final week of June 2020. Paper Excellence has substantially invested to improve mill operations since acquiring the Mackenzie facility in 2010. Despite best efforts by the company and its committed team of employees in Mackenzie, the COVID-19 global pandemic is having negative impacts on pulp markets creating conditions that no longer support the on-going operation of the mill. Furthermore, the deep fibre shortage in BC and the Mackenzie region have affected the mill’s competitiveness. This shortage was exacerbated by recent curtailment of sawmills in the Mackenzie region dramatically reducing economic fibre availability.
President and CEO Ilkka Hämälä: The year 2024 was exceptionally weak financially, with comparable operating profit falling to EUR 203 million. Demand in our main markets was subdued in all product groups, except for tissue and cooking papers and Kerto® LVL. At the beginning of the year, political strikes caused a loss of EUR 60 million. The effects of higher raw material and logistics costs could not be passed on to product prices, as demand was weak. Major development investments in recent years have significantly increased depreciation. The positive effects of new capacity on profits have not yet materialised in the sawmill, pulp and paperboard industries due to the start-up of production and weak demand.
