NorskeCanada changed its name to Catalyst Paper Corporation following a shareholder meeting.
The company will begin using the new name immediately and on October 6; it will trade under a new ticker symbol - CTL - on the Toronto Stock Exchange.
"We are an independent company and it's time we had a name that is uniquely our own," said Russell Horner, president and CEO. "Catalyst is a good description of the way we operate and is a recognized trademark as the product brand we used to successfully market our directory papers around the world."
The company gave notice of the proposal to change its name change in late July following a decision in June to dissolve a joint venture North American specialty marketing arrangement between NorskeCanada and Norske Skog ASA effective October 1.
