Sylvamo's main NBSK production is from its Eastover (South Carolina) and Saillat (France) mills. Sylvamo was spun off from International Paper to allow IP to focus on packaging while Sylvamo focused on the declining printing/writing paper business — a corporate separation that isolated the printing paper market from IP's growth strategy.
