    Assurances closing a South Auckland paper mill won't affect kerbside recycling

    Assurances closing a South Auckland paper mill won't affect kerbside recycling

    18 September 2024
    Oji Fibre Solutions will shut up just a week before Christmas, with the loss of 75 jobs.

    It's the latest manufacturing firm challenged by high electricity costs -- following Winstone Pulp International closing two mills.

    Auckland Council waste solutions general manager Parul Sood says paper and cardboard collected from homes hasn't been going to the Penrose mill.

    She says it's sent to various markets in Asia because paper and cardboard is sold as a commodity - and goes where they get a good price.
