And that's just the cost of the two fabrics. We lost nearly a whole day's production, paid two full crews for the duration of the shutdown (about 30 people), many of whom were on forced overtime making time-and-a-half wages, etc, etc. We had to dump many thousands of gallons of pulp slurry because it was contaminated with plastic filaments from the torn forming wires - it was a huge mess.
