Ashdown Mill
Ashdown Mill
Since its opening in 1968, Domtar’s Ashdown Mill has steadily grown in size to become one of the largest fluff pulp production facilities in the world. In 2016, Domtar made its largest ever capital investment, converting one of the paper machines at the southwest Arkansas-based Ashdown Mill to produce premium fluff pulp. This investment positioned Domtar as a world leader in the fluff-pulp market, which is increasingly important in the production of baby diapers, adult incontinence and absorbent hygiene products.
