Cascades has partnered with Infinity Machine & Engineering Corp. to undertake a $5.3m investment to increase the capacity of two of its production lines.
A new packer and higher-performance case packer have been added to the machine that produces bathroom tissue for the Cascades PRO AfH product line.
These additions will increase production by 20% by the end of 2025.
Additional improvement investments have also been made in another machine producing retail bathroom tissue.
The company said the integration of the equipment will improve productivity and enhance the quality of the bathroom tissue produced. These changes will also increase production by 20% by the end of 2025.
Hugues Simon, President and Chief Executive of Cascades, said: “These enhancement at our Granby tissue plant will expand our ability to meet the needs of our current and future customers.
“This investment is part of an ongoing effort to optimise our operations and consolidate our growth path.”
Acquired in 2011, the Granby tissue plant currently serves the residential, commercial and business markets for hygiene solutions and tissue paper.
