Kapstone Paper and Packaging to Temporarily Curtail Operations at Longview Mill

KapStone Paper and Packaging has announced that due to seasonally softer market conditions, it will temporarily curtail operations at its Longview Mill beginning 21 December.

The curtailment is expected to last seven days for the entire mill and will be extended an additional two days for certain product grades and paper machines.

No other KapStone mill location will be taking market-related downtime during this period.

This measure will not affect customer orders and service.

KapStone Paper and Packaging is the fifth largest producer of containerboard and corrugated packaging products and is the largest kraft paper producer in the United States. The Company has four paper mills, 22 converting plants and 65 distribution centers. The business has approximately 6,200 employees.
