history
In 1932 the factory was founded by the Swedish company Svenska Tändsticks Aktiebolaget . In 1940, after more than 50 years, the work was nationalized and named after the Soviet-Lithuanian poet Julius Janonis . Janonio Popieriaus fabrikas had his own hydroelectric power station . The factory employees played in the soccer club "JJPF Kaunas".
In 1993, after the company was privatized, it became a joint stock company ( AB ) "Kauno popieriaus fabrikas". In 1998 production fell by almost a third after the Russian crisis . Since 2000, the factory has only been producing from raw materials provided by customers. The suppliers of the fiber material were Finnish, Russian and Swedish paper and pulp mills. Due to a lack of working capital, the factory was unable to purchase materials and replace outdated equipment. From 1999 to 2002 the paper mill had a net loss of 16.4 million litas (4.5 million euros).
In 2002 the company went bankrupt . On July 26, 2002, the creditors decided to liquidate the company and sell the remaining production (manufactured goods) and other assets. The total assets of the bankrupt factory amounted to about 23 million litas (6.6 million euros ). The company's registered capital on the day of the bankruptcy proceedings was litas 15.5 million. The company's assets were not pledged to banks. 50 creditors and 439 employees were entitled to more than 13 million litas (4 million euros). The factory owed the tax inspectorate over 3.8 million litas (1.1 million euros), the social security SoDra almost 3 million litas, the energy company Kauno energija more than 1.5 million litas and the employees 2.26 million litas salaries paid. The production, worth 1.26 million litas, was then sold. In 2003 there were 25 tons of toxins on the factory premises. On August 1, 2005, the company was dissolved due to liquidation .
In addition to the factory buildings on the 9.94 hectare site, the company had a recreation facility in the Varėna district , its own cultural center not far from the factory, and a dormitory on Kalantos Street in Kaunas.
