Description

In August 2005, the paperboard company Schur took over Danapak Kartonnage with departments in Korsør and Herning, and decided by the end of August to close both locations. 102 employees are to be dismissed In Korsør, and 72 in herning. As the production of Schur is being rationalised, a gradual relocation of orders from the other departments to the main plant in Horsens is to be expected. 60 employees will have the opportunity to be transferred.
