FYI:
Mill Superintendent: The mill superintendent holds a critical role within the mill. They will have responsibility for several teams as well as individual team members, production, quality, safety, machine operation, and fiber. They will help guide the development and prioritization and implementation of a long-term operations strategy. Good leadership and communication skills are a must for a mill superintendent to have a successful paper-making team.
Did you know: The United States recycles 4.5 million tons of recovered fiber in uncoated recycled paperboard (URB) each year. The recycled paperboard industry is the primary purchaser of old corrugated containers (OCC). OCC is recovered from retail outlets and industrial sources and converted into 100% recycled paperboard and then into new packaging1.
