Mohawk buys Smart Paper uncoated brands and licensed coated papers

Early today Mohawk Fine Paper announced that it had purchased all of the uncoated brands of paper produced by Smart Papers. As well, Mohawk has licensed Smart's coated papers, Kromekote and Knightkote for worldwide distribution into paper merchant and graphic design markets.

What does this mean?

This is big news for the paper industry and big news for the print and graphic design industry. This means that what were the last four largest paper mills for fine paper in North America are now only three. Smart Paper along with Wausau Paper represented the last two medium quality paper mills. While Neenah Paper and Mohawk represented the last two "major" premium paper mill (note: other small high quality mills still are in production). Today Mohawk stands alone representing paper production from medium to premium quality paper.
