West Fraser Timber Co. says it will permanently reduce capacity at its pulp mill in Hinton, Alta., by year’s end. One of the mill’s two production lines will shut down, while the other will transition to producing unbleached pulp. “Hinton Pulp has been in operation since 1956 and these changes are necessary to simplify our operation, reduce capital requirements and greenhouse gas emissions, and better align with consumer expectations,” West Fraser CEO and president Ray Ferris said in a release.
