Jan 12, 2009. /Lesprom.com/. Altri informs that its subsidiary CPK – Papel Kraft, S.A. decided to shut down permanently its kraft sack unit. The shut down costs, reaching Euro 5 million, are totally allocated to the 4Q 2008, the company said in a statement received by Lesprom Network. This strategic decision was taken due to the negative environment currently felt in kraft sack business and the negligible current impact of CPK to Atri’s consolidated EBITDA. Altri reinforces its strategic position in its core business: forest management and pulp production. Altri has three pulp mills in operation being one of the European lowest cost producers. After the completion of the current expansion plan, in 2010 the total pulp production capacity will be over 900 thousand tones per year.
