Norbord Inc. announced that effective mid-November, it will indefinitely curtail production on Line 1 of its two-line oriented strand board (OSB) mill in Cordele, Georgia until further notice.<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Cordele Line 1 has been operating on a reduced 10\/4 operating schedule since early September. Cordele Line 2 will continue to operate on a full production schedule.<\/p>\n

The Cordele Line 1 indefinite curtailment is due to continued poor market conditions and lower-than-anticipated OSB demand to-date, particularly in the South East region. These conditions no longer support the economic operation of Line 1 at this time. The indefinite curtailment will ensure Norbord continues to only produce what the company can sell, in the most efficient and cost-effective manner.<\/p>\n

\"This is a difficult decision and a very disappointing outcome, but it reflects the economic realities facing our business,\" said Peter Wijnbergen, Norbord's President & CEO. \"We have an experienced, hard-working team at Cordele and we thank them for their commitment to the company, our customers and our suppliers.\"<\/p>\n

Norbord will continue to serve its customers without disruption from Cordele Line 2 and from its other operating OSB mills in North America. The Cordele, Georgia mill has two production lines and a total stated annual production capacity of 1,040 million square feet (MMsf) (3\/8-inch basis). The indefinite curtailment of Line 1 will affect 440 MMsf (3\/8-inch basis) or 42% of the mill's available capacity (6% of Norbord's North American OSB capacity). Approximately 45 employees will be impacted by this curtailment.<\/p>\n

As a result of this curtailment, the Company will record a non-cash impairment charge of $10 million (pre-tax) against the carrying value of the Cordele mill's fixed assets as part of its third quarter 2019 earnings results.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
