Catalyst Paper announced that it will restart the second line of pulp production at its Crofton NBSK kraft mill. The first line of pulp production was restarted in October 2009 following a seven-month curtailment of the entire kraft mill due to weak pulp demand and pricing. Restart of Crofton’s second line of production will add 165,000 tonnes of pulp capacity on an annualized basis. Catalyst has a combined annual production capacity of 2.5 million tonnes.
