Lecta: Closure of Torraspapel's Sarria de Mer mill, Spain

After a process of negotiation and dialogue with employee representatives to study the viability or closure of Torraspapel’s mill in Sarrià de Ter, the company and employees reached an agreement that will result in the closure of the plant, relocating 73 of the 132 employees to other Group manufacturing sites in Spain.

Current production at Sarrià de Ter, approximately 67,000 t/y of base paper and uncoated specialty papers, will be relocated to other Group mills, primarily to the Zaragoza and Motril plants, resulting in a reduction of coated woodfree paper production capacity at these mills.

The gradual closure of Torraspapel’s mill in Sarrià de Ter will take place over the next few months.
