The Domtar Product Company (Domtar)’s mill in Kingsport, Tennessee is undergoing a conversion from producing uncoated freesheet paper to becoming Domtar’s first packaging facility. When complete, the mill will be able to produce and market about 600,000 tons of high-quality recycled liner board and corrugated medium annually, making it the second-largest recycled container board machine in North America. Brown & Root has successfully executed a multitude of boiler services and looks forward to continuing to be a partner with Domtar!
