FORT MILL, SC, February 16, 2026 — Domtar’s Calhoun, TN site has begun installation of a new, world-class high-speed tissue converting line designed to increase operational output, enhance efficiency, and support long-term scalability. The advanced equipment will help better align the mill’s tissue production capacity with its converting capabilities, strengthening overall operational performance to better service the US tissue market.

To complement the new line, the mill is also expanding its existing warehouse space for parent tissue rolls. This additional capacity will support improved inventory management and provide greater operational flexibility.

“This investment underscores the Company’s continued commitment to operational excellence and future growth in the US tissue market,” said Tony Sanders, vice president of sales and marketing.

The upgraded converting technology will elevate product quality to meet rising consumer demand in the marketplace, while the expanded warehousing will ensure the infrastructure needed to support future business and production needs.
