CANADA (News release) -- Paper Excellence announced the temporary curtailment of operations at its Catalyst Paper tiskwat mill. Severe challenges with local and global supply chain congestion exacerbated by BC's recent atmospheric river event have caused significant paper inventory and movement problems for the company. The curtailment is targeted to begin in the week of November 22, 2021 and we will evaluate conditions for potential restart in early January 2022.

Paper Excellence will endeavor to supply paper customers with production from Crofton and Port Alberni as it hopes for a speedy return to normalcy of supply chain performance. Crofton's pulp and paper operations are currently curtailed until November 24 with its power boiler's maintenance outage. The company continues to believe that Canada is a leader in the pulp and paper industry and remains committed to its long-term investments here.
