Strike at UPM mill in France

Sept 25 2012  A strike has stopped the production at UPM's Stracel paper mill in France.

According to French media, employees at the mill halted the work Wednesday morning last week. The strike was started by the union CGT, and other unions joined the action shortly after.According to UPM, the strike has no impact on deliveries to customers, as UPM can supply paper from other UPM production units.As Papernet earlier has reported, UPM has tried to divest Stracel mill. German VPK Packaging und Klingele Papierwerke is interested to take over the mill and convert it into a testliner production plant.The mill has approximately 250 employees.A decision by the unions about ending or continuing the strike is expected to be made today, Tuesday.
