Pro-Gest suspends production at 6 paper mills in Italy

Pro-Gest announces that production at the Group’s 6 paper mills operating in Italy will be suspended due to the further increase in natural gas prices. Following the rapid escalation of natural gas prices, now at historic highs, Pro-Gest is resorting the force majeure and deciding to temporarily stop production of all 9 of its corrugator and tissue paper machines.

The Group's plants for the production of packaging are not involved at the moment and will remain in regular production for the time being.

Established in 1973, Pro-Gest SpA is one of the leading European players in the vertically integrated production of paper, cardboard and packaging and operates in Italy.
