Thuringian Minister-President Bodo Ramelow (Die Linke) Visits Koehler Paper at its Greiz mill

The Thuringian Minister-President, Bodo Ramelow (Die Linke), visited the Koehler Paper site in Greiz as part of his summer tour together with Holger Steiniger, Chairman of the Greiz City Council, Alexander Frieß and Leon Walter, direct candidate (Die Linke). The talks centered on the local, but also national needs of the paper manufacturer, which sells its high-quality recycled paper to the whole world from its site in Greiz. The company’s climate strategy was also a subject of discussion.

Bodo Ramelow was enthusiastic about the sustainable corporate policy: “We need companies like Koehler that are committed and courageous. I’m pleased that Koehler has helped to boost Thuringia’s status as a sustainable business location.” During a tour of the site, the Minister-President was able to get an impression of the production process. In addition to first-class paper recycling, the plant also uses advanced color technology that allows high-grade recycled paper with an unparalleled range of colors to be produced. Products made in Greiz bear the “Blue Angel” ecolabel as a result. “With your work, you are making Greiz known in the world and that makes us very proud,” added Ramelow.
