A total of 2,300 people work at the Kwidzyn mill and it is capable of producing 740,000 tonnes of folding boxboard, uncoated freesheet, specialty kraft papers, and market pulp in an average year on four machines.
International Paper announced December 3, 2020, it was planning to spin-off its Printing Papers business into one standalone, publicly-traded company to focus on its corrugated packaging and absorbent fiber businesses.

Under customary closing conditions and regulatory approvals, International Paper expects the transaction to close in the third quarter of 2021, following consultation with the appropriate employee representatives before agreeing.
