Bukóza is running at just 60% capacity but plans new investments
Vranov nad Topľou-based pulp maker Bukóza (Ján Ďurian) is running at just 60% capacity. Demand for paper is soft, while prices for energy, wood, and other inputs are still high. It hopes paper prices will recover in the spring. Bukóza is not yet considering layoffs and is keeping all 1,000 staff. Slovakia’s largest paper mill, Mondi SCP Ružomberok, confirmed the falling demand for paper.
Bukóza is planning a €4.5m investment that will reduce ash content in its pulp from 0.2% to 0.12%. Cleaner pulp will reach new markets.
