UPM will discontinue label materials production in Nancy, France. The Nancy site will continue as a slitting and distribution terminal offering best-in class service and lead time to UPM Adhesive Materials’ customers. The consultation process with employee representatives was completed on November 12, 2025, according to French legislation and approved by the French authorities on November 28, 2025.
The change will impact 79 employees. UPM offers support to employees to alleviate the effects of the staff reductions.
These changes aim at supporting UPM Adhesive Materials’ growth by improving the overall profitability of its operations and maximizing synergies. By centralizing production to more cost competitive factories, UPM will also improve its cost efficiency and the quality of its products.
