Koehler Paper restructures index and office board offerings

Print Solutions

Koehler Paper is strategically restructuring its range of index and office board products and taking an important step towards realigning its paper production operations.

As part of this strategic realignment, index board products will no longer be made at the company’s Oberkirch mill. Instead, the mill in Greiz (in the German state of Thuringia) will be taking over production and making use of synergistic effects with its broad range of office board products. ‘Our aim with this new structure is to continue optimising production processes and respond flexibly to market needs while simultaneously maintaining our excellent delivery capability,’ said Marco Lang, the director of fine paper and carbonless paper.

For many years now, the office board made in Greiz has been used successfully by organisations and offices everywhere. This office board is made with 100% secondary fibres, is available in eight pastel colours, three grammages, and numerous sizes, and bears the Blue Angel eco label.

As part of this new portfolio reorganisation, Koehler Paper has also decided to completely remove ledger paper from its range of offerings due to collapsing demand. However, the company has also emphasised the fact that it will continue to be in close contact with customers during the corresponding transition stage and will be available to answer any questions and help choose alternative products.

This restructuring will enable Koehler Paper to bolster its competitiveness and effectively align its range of products with future market needs.
