Kingsey Falls, Quebec based Cascades has announced it has invested $6.9 million in its uncoated recycled boxboard manufacturing plant (Papier Kingsey Falls) to increase its equipment’s production capacity and quality.
Since last September, Cascades has installed several new pieces of equipment to improve sheet quality control. These investments will significantly improve the plant’s ability to better meet the needs of the food packaging industry, including surface finish and printing requirements.
“This project will enable us to increase our capacity and remain a valued partner for our customers,” said Hugues Simon, President and CEO of Cascades. “It underscores our unwavering commitment to investing in our assets in Quebec to accelerate our growth. I’d like to thank the employees who helped install this equipment. Their expertise and dedication have made this project a great success.”
Commissioned in 1972, this Kingsey Falls plant currently serves the industrial and food packaging markets. It currently boasts 68 employees and is one of the region’s top employers. It also provides a competitive salary and a benefits program tailored to its employees’ lifestyle.
A key player in the packaging sector, Cascades offers a wide range of high-performance products with a low environmental footprint.
