SAPPI North America

Sappi Somerset, one of North America's largest paper mills, produces vast amounts of graphics and board paper, along with pulp. Originating in 1976 as a greenfield pulp mill, it supplied fiber for Scott paper tissue mills. State-of-the-art coated paper machines were installed in 1982, 1986, and 1990, with significant reinvestments over time. The mill expanded into SBS board grades with the PM1 rebuild in 2018, maintaining a focus on safety, quality, and productivity.
