TORONTO (News release) -- Mercer International Inc. reports that its joint venture Cariboo pulp mill in British Columbia, Canada will be taking approximately 4 weeks of downtime starting on or about April 20, 2020, resulting in an approximate reduction of NBSK production of 30,000 tonnes of which Mercer's share is 15,000 tonnes.
The downtime is in connection with reduced fibre availability resulting from regional sawmill downtime. The cogeneration facility at the Cariboo mill will continue to operate during the downtime.
