Around 230 workers will lose ther jobs when the Kinleith Mill discontinues paper production next year.
Staff were called into a meeting this morning where they were told that manufacturing paper had become unprofitable.

In September Oji announced it will close its mill in Penrose, Auckland on December the 18th.
