 PROFILE
Mercer International sticks to a high-fiber diet. The company makes pulp and paper from virgin fiber (wood chips and pulpwood) and recycled fiber through its Spezialpapierfabrik Blankenstein and Dresden Papier subsidiaries. Its two paper mills have an annual production of about 85,000 metric tons of paper, which is sold to wallpaper manufacturers and printers, mostly in Western Europe. Mercer also has the capacity to churn out 280,000 metric tons of pulp annually, which is sold mainly to tissue and paper mills. The company is in the process of adding a new pulp mill (the Stendal Project) that will eventually triple its pulp production. Mercer has sold its packaging paper mill.
