Gorham, New Hampshire, October 22, 2013 – A leading producer of parent rolls for the Away-From-Home (AFH) towel market, Gorham Paper and Tissue announces an investment which allows customers to purchase towel rolls in multiple core sizes. This is to provide smaller core sizes which meet increasing market demand for the product.
“We are a significant player in the AFH towel market known for high quality towel papers, responsive services and a willingness to innovate,” explained Brian McAlary, Vice President of Sales and Marketing, Gorham Paper and Tissue. “Over the past two years, key converters have been asking us to offer smaller core size so they can use our product. Added converting capability allows us to meet their needs and serve as an additional source of supply.”
The availability of 3”, 5”, 6” and 8”cores expands the company’s diverse portfolio of premium and standard towel papers. Towel options include high-bright, kraft, low stretch, high tensile, DRC (double reverse crepe), anti-microbial properties, color, recycled content and chain-of-custody fiber certification (SFI, FSC and PEFC).
McAlary added, “This is a win-win for everyone. Converters who value working with a small, nimble specialty mill like Gorham can now utilize our towel products in their operations while we increase market presence by satisfying a broader array of customers.“
Gorham products are used for a variety of applications including away-from-home towel, industrial towel and wipes, napkins and medical products like exam table barrier.
