Exploring a Huge Abandoned Paper Mill

In this episode we are exploring the abandoned Amcor Paper Mill. The AMCOR paper mills (est. Australian Paper Mills Co.) in Alphington was Victoria’s first paper mill. The mill expanded during the 1930s with a 15-ton turbo electric generator bought in 1932 and transported in two halves from Victoria Dock to Fairfield. This was a huge technological advance for the mill as the generator was one of the first of its kind to be used in private industry in Australia. It also established an early form of household recycling with a call to households to sponsor charities to collect waste paper and sell it to the A.P.M. for recycling into cardboard. In 1937 the company floated £1,000,000 of shares to finance the mill extensions. The announcement made in the following year by the managing director Sir Herbert Gepp of the imminent closure of the Melbourne Mill near Princes Bridge, caused a sensation among employees facing dismissal.
