Additional Reduction of Lecta CWF 2S Production Capacity

Continuing with its strategy defined in 2013, Lecta is gradually adapting its production, reducing its capacity and dependency on its CWF 2S product line. In 2016 the additional reduction capacity will be approximately 50,000 tons.

The main steps have been the closure of the Condat L6 in 2013, with a capacity reduction of 130,000 tons, and around 160,000 tons of CWF capacity shifted to base paper production at the Zaragoza and Motril mills from 2014 to 2016 after the closure of Sarria de Ter and Uranga mills.

As a consequence, Lecta’s total CWF 2S capacity reduction during this period will be approximately 290,000 tons.
