Nippon Paper Industries
Co., Ltd. decided to review the production structure of glassine paper and
achieve a more efficient production structure, as part of the restructuring
initiatives, on the basis of the contraction of the domestic paper market.
Currently the Nippon Paper Group produces glassine paper at two mills, namely
the Company's Fuji Mill and Harada Mill of Nippon Paper Papylia Co., Ltd., a
specialty paper company of the Group. The company decided to consolidate
production and halt the operations of Fuji Mill Paper Machine No.1 by the end
of September 2017. Production of glassine paper, which is produced in this
machine, will be transferred to Nippon Paper Papylia Harada Mill.
