Domtar Corporation, a part of the Paper Excellence Group, will sell its Dryden pulp mill to First Quality Enterprises, Inc., the two companies have announced. The transaction, expected to close early in the third quarter, is subject to customary closing conditions, including receipt of required regulatory approvals and the closing of the Resolute Forest Products Inc. transaction.
 
First Quality has made clear to Domtar its commitment to the Dryden Mill, which is located in Ontario, Canada, its employees and the surrounding community and that First Quality fully intends to continue business operations consistent with past practices.
 
In other news, Egal, a company on a mission to give periods equal treatment in the restroom, is launching a new menstrual pad that will be as accessible as toilet paper. While 300 million people menstruate daily, unpredictable periods and a lack of access to period products can lead to embarrassment and missed work or school. The company is launching its product with $1 million investment angel funding.
