Investment in output capacities U.S. paper and pulp giant Georgia-Pacific has announced an investment of more than $20 million at the company’s plant in Lebanon, in the state of Tennessee.
Owing to the project, the factory’s existing corrugator will be replaced with a new one, providing the facility with more throughput, and ensuring better-quality products, the business said in a statement.
“This is as much an investment in our current and future customers as it is in our Lebanon operations,” said Rob Streeter, Georgia-Pacific’s area general manager. “This new technologically advanced corrugator will give us the ability to supply the independent and integrated box and display customers throughout the mid-South, with upgraded offerings such as two-sided high-quality print, including Georgia-Pacific’s Hummingbird® digital print, on a variety of fluting options for the converted board.”
The planned startup of the new unit is scheduled for the first half of 2024.
