The paper mill, to be built in Binh Long commune of Binh Son district near Dung Quat Economic Zone, will produce 200,000 tonnes of paper in addition to 130,000 tonnes of pulp per year.

With an investment of US$185 million, the new plant’s products will replace imported paper on the local market and part of its products will be exported.

Once operational, the mill will help to curb the shortage of paper in the local market and, at the same time, offer employment opportunities to thousands of workers in the central region.

The paper mill project has been submitted to the Quang Ngai provincial People’s Committee for approval.
