Sep 17, 2013. /Lesprom Network/. Mohawk announces an organizational restructuring, creating two new distinct business units: Mohawk Fine Paper and Mohawk Digital. This move will support the growth in Mohawk’s emerging digital business while securing the future of its core fine paper business, as the company said in the press release received by Lesprom Network.

The core business of fine text and cover papers and envelopes will be managed within the Mohawk Fine Paper division, while the company’s growing portfolio of digital substrates will be managed within the new Mohawk Digital division.

“Mohawk’s traditional fine paper business is mature, while our digital business has experienced, and is positioned for rapid growth. Given the differing maturity levels of these two segments, it was necessary to develop individual growth strategies to ensure future success.” said Thomas D. O’Connor, Jr., Chairman and CEO, Mohawk.

Mohawk is North America's largest privately-owned manufacturer of fine papers, envelopes and specialty substrates for commercial and digital printing. The company is a fourth-generation, family-owned and operated business based in Cohoes, New York, with global sales and operations located throughout North America, Europe and Asia.
