Chilean pulp and tissue giant CMPC has confirmed it has resumed operations at its Guaíba-based site.

The plant had previously been impacted by a transportation strike in Brazil.

It said it has now normalised the supply of the main inputs for its tissue and pulp operations, with its production lines at Guaíba, its tissue products’ mills and distribution of products to customers now returning to normal.

For its pulp operations, CMPC confirmed that as a result of the stoppage it will have a lower production of 20,000 tonnes.
