- Canfor Pulp Products Inc. produces and sells pulp and paper products worldwide through its two operating segments, Pulp and Paper. The company manufactures Northern Bleached Softwood Kraft (NBSK) pulp with a capacity of approximately 480,000 tons annually at its mills in Prince George, British Columbia; bleached chemi-thermo mechanical pulp; bleached, unbleached and colored kraft paper with a capacity of 140,000 tons annually; and green energy from operational byproducts. Its products serve manufacturers of specialty papers, premium tissue, printing and writing papers, and other end uses, with primary markets in North America, Asia and Europe.
Founded in 2010 as a publicly traded entity and headquartered in Vancouver, Canada, Canfor Pulp Products Inc. operates as a subsidiary of Canadian Forest Products Ltd. (Canfor Corp.), with production facilities located in the northern interior of British Columbia. The company sources residual fiber from sawmills and whole logs to produce its kraft pulps and papers, emphasizing premium northern softwood fibers for strength, flexibility and brightness.
In December 2025, Canfor Corp. announced its agreement to acquire all outstanding shares of Canfor Pulp Products Inc. that it does not already own at CAD 0.50 per share, representing a 25% premium to the prior closing price, to streamline ownership, enhance liquidity and realize cost synergies amid challenges in British Columbia's fiber supply and log costs. Earlier in 2025, the company reported improved Q1 operating income of $10.8 million, driven by a 6% increase in pulp production from better reliability and modestly higher NBSK realizations, alongside an amendment to its credit facility. It continues to focus on operational optimization, cost management and reliability enhancements in response to global economic uncertainty and rising transportation pressures.
