Barnwell Tissue Solutions, a tissue manufacturer, announced it is establishing operations in Barnwell County.
The company’s $12 million investment will create 50 jobs, according to Gov. Henry McMaster’s office.
Barnwell Tissue Solutions plans to purchase the existing tissue mill located at 285 Midfield Road in Barnwell.
The company will manufacture large paper rolls from recycled paper, which will be converted into away-from-home tissue products.
“Barnwell Tissue Solutions, a proud member of the ST Group of companies, is honored to expand our manufacturing footprint into Barnwell, South Carolina,” said Barnwell Tissue Solutions Owner Sahil Tak. “This acquisition reflects our commitment to investing in rural American communities and creating high-quality manufacturing jobs – particularly for local residents.
Tak added, “We are excited to partner with the community to build a skilled workforce and generate long-term economic opportunity. We extend our sincere thanks to the visionary leaders at both the state and county levels whose support made this project possible. Together, we look forward to shaping a vibrant future for Barnwell County.”
Operations are expected to be online in the third quarter of 2025.
The state’s Coordinating Council for Economic Development approved job development credits related to the project.
