Metsä Tissue has concluded negotiations with the works council regarding its investment and capacity adjustment plan introduced in January 2025 at its Kreuzau mill in Germany.
As a result of the negotiations, 93 employees will be made redundant out of the original estimation of 123.
Tobias Lüning, SVP West, and Country Manager of Metsä Tissue, said: “We are firmly committed to the future of Kreuzau mill.
“With the jointly developed plan to realign the mill and the associated investments, we are laying the foundation for a competitive future production.
“We are not only securing remaining jobs but also strengthening our role as a reliable partner for sustainable hygiene tissue papers – today and in the future.”
Kreuzau is one of the largest tissue paper mills in Europe, supplying customers in Central Europe with high-quality fresh fibre tissue paper products.
