What are your thoughts on the mill stopping paper production?
It was the end of an era, and the end of employment for more than 150 Kinleith Mill workers after New Zealand’s last paper making machine was shut down for good on Monday.
One worker told the Waikato Times that while the news had taken six months to sink in, it was still an emotional day for many workers, some who had been there for more than 40 years.

He went on camping holidays with his parents, and later, took his own kids.
“Camping’s been in my blood.”
