AkzoNobel's Pulp and Paper Chemicals business, Eka Chemicals, Gothenburg, Sweden, reports that it will close operations at its paper chemicals Joutseno, Finland, plant by the end of the first quarter of 2012.
The company notes that, despite the best efforts of its employees, current market and economic conditions have rendered the production of sizing agents at the site financially unsustainable in the longer term. The Nordic market will continue to be supplied with similar products from other Eka locations in the region.
