UPM Raflatac expands operations with new terminal in Toronto

-

UPM Raflatac, a global supplier of innovative and sustainable self-adhesive paper and film products, announces the opening of its new distribution terminal located in Ajax, Ontario, part of the Greater Toronto Area. This 30,000-square-foot facility extends service to Eastern Canadian customers and complements an existing network of three factories and two other terminals that collectively service North America-based customers.

As part of UPM Raflatac’s dedication to high-quality materials and service in the Americas, the new terminal is equipped with the latest slitting and material handling technology. With an expansive inventory ready for slitting and shipping, the Toronto facility enhances customer flexibility, customization, and order efficiency. UPM Raflatac’s terminal network mitigates risks associated with supply chain disruptions while ensuring warehousing capacity. The facility began its initial customer shipments on 2 October, with production ramping up through the end of 2024.

“Our new terminal in Toronto marks a pivotal step in enhancing our service to Eastern Canada. This expansion supports customer success while driving sustainable solutions, reinforcing our commitment to the industry. I want to thank our Implementation Team for achieving this milestone and express appreciation for the Toronto team’s focus and excitement as they navigate the ongoing ramp-up period,” stated Alex Ramirez, director fulfillment, UPM Raflatac Americas.

In addition to the North American production network, UPM Raflatac operates terminals and offices in Santiago, Chile; Buenos Aires, Argentina; Mexico City, Mexico; and Guadalajara, Mexico, to service customers in Central and South America.
