Norske Skog Skogn is a paper mill located in Levanger in Norway. The mill was the first mill in the Norske Skog Corporation and opened in 1962. It has three paper machines and produces 600,000 tonnes of newsprint annually. In conjunction with the mill there is a port with two weekly lines to Continental Europe and Great Britain.
The company that operates the mill has now become one of the largest producers of newsprint in the world, owning plants throughout Europe, Asia, South America and Oceania. The factory was for a long time the global headquarters of the corporation.
