“The Tages-Anzeiger newspaper says the problem lies with LandQart, a company based in the Graubünden town of Landquart, which supplies paper to Orell Füssli, a firm that has printed Swiss money for decades. LandQart, taken over by the Canadian company Fortress in 2006, is apparently having difficulties producing paper of the right quality on a consistent basis, the newspaper says. The central bank did not go into details.”
