Nippon Paper Industries Co., Ltd.

Nippon Paper Industries Co., Ltd. (President: Fumio Manoshiro; hereinafter, "Nippon Paper Industries") has decided to integrate Yoshinaga Mill (Address: 798 Hina, Fuji-shi, Shizuoka Prefecture) and Fuji Mill (Address: 600 Tadehara, Fuji-shi, Shizuoka Prefecture) as of April 1, 2015. The integrated mill will be called "Fuji Mill."

Until now, Yoshinaga Mill and Fuji Mill, both located in Fuji-shi, have been cooperating by means such as the integrated procurement of raw materials and information sharing. However, with the integration of the two mills in light of the tough business climate surrounding paper and paperboard, Nippon Paper Industries aims to strengthen the cooperative structure of back-office sections and further streamline operations.
