Earnings Announcements

Chinese Paper

By:

Jim Thompson, Executive Editor

Last fall, Shandong Sun Paper said it is going to build a new USD 1.3 billion pulp and paper mill in Arkadelphia, Arkansas. In 2014, Shandong Tranlin Paper Company said it was going to build a USD 2 billion papermill in Chesterfield, Virginia, based on wheat straw as a raw material. The best we can determine, these companies are not related. Yet, there are remarkably similar peculiarities to these two projects.
