Norampac announced plans to close its corrugated product plant located in Concord, Ontario, during the first quarter of next year.
Plant operations will be transferred to the Etobicoke and St. Mary's plants in Ontario, where Norampac expects to relocate the majority of its Concord employees. Norampac will also invest $17 million in these two plants and will install, among other things, a large fully automated press at the Etobicoke plant in order to offer its customers better quality products.
"This decision was made in an effort to maintain our position as industry leader. It will allow us to optimize the operations of our corrugated product plants in Ontario while allowing them to offer top quality service to our customers," explains Marc-Andre Depin, Norampac's president and CEO.
