Facing the Market, Paper360 May/June 2019

An historic name has had a rebirth in the Canadian fine paper industry.

Rolland, synonymous with fine paper, has roots dating back to 1882 when Jean Baptiste Rolland founded the company, building mills in Mont Rolland, QC, about 50 miles north of Montreal; as well as Saint-Jérôme, about 15 miles south of Mont Rolland. The Mont Rolland operation closed in the 1980s, but Saint-Jérôme has found new life under Sustana Group.

Over the years, the company built a reputation for high-quality, linen-based security papers. Tough economic times forced the family to sell to Cascades in 1992 and the mill became part of Cascades Fine Paper. When Cascades opted to millwise concentrate on the packaging and tissue markets, the Saint-Jérôme mill was no longer a core asset.
