Feb 16, 2009. /Lesprom Network/. West Fraser announced that the Company's two BCTMP mills will take additional production curtailments that will reduce total production by approximately 50 thousand metric tonnes over the period ending May 31, 2009. These curtailments at Quesnel River Pulp and Slave Lake Pulp are in addition to the 25% reduction in operating rates implemented at each mill in late 2008, the company said in a press release received by Lesprom Network. The additional reduction of production is in response to continued weakening of demand for high-yield pulp. West Fraser is an integrated wood products company producing lumber, LVL, MDF, plywood, pulp, linerboard, kraft paper and newsprint.
