Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Accounting Policies | 2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Presentation The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements (“financial statements”) include the accounts of Glatfelter and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. We prepared these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“generally accepted accounting principles” or “GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission pertaining to interim financial statements. In our opinion, the financial statements reflect all normal, recurring adjustments needed to present fairly our results for the interim periods. When preparing these financial statements, we have assumed you have read the audited consolidated financial statements included in our 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Discontinued Operations The results of operations and cash flows of our former Specialty Papers business have been classified as discontinued operations for all periods presented in the condensed consolidated statements of income. Accounting Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingencies as of the balance sheet date and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management believes the estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of these financial statements are reasonable, based upon currently available facts and known circumstances, but recognizes actual results may differ from those estimates and assumptions. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (“ASU No. 2019-12”) . The update eliminates, clarifies, and modifies certain guidance related to the accounting for income taxes. We adopted ASU No. 2019-12 effective January 1, 2021 and it did not have a material impact on our financial statements. |

Pending Acquisition | 3. PENDING ACQUISITION On January 5, 2021, we signed a definitive agreement to purchase Georgia-Pacific's U.S. nonwovens business ("G-P") for $175 million, subject to customary post-closing purchase price adjustments. This business includes the Mount Holly, NC manufacturing facility with annual production capacity of approximately 37,000 metric tons and an R&D center and pilot line for nonwovens product development in Memphis, TN. G-P had annual net sales of approximately $100 million in 2020. The waiting period for regulatory review expired, satisfying one of the conditions to the closing of the proposed acquisition, which remains subject to other customary closing conditions. The transaction is expected to close by mid-May 2021. The acquisition will be financed through a combination of cash on hand and borrowings under our revolving credit facility. Upon completion of the acquisition, the acquired business will be operated as part of our Airlaid Materials reporting segment. |

Stock-Based Compensation | 9. STOCK-BASED The P. H. Glatfelter Amended and Restated Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “LTIP”) provides for the issuance of Glatfelter common stock to eligible participants in the form of restricted stock units, restricted stock awards, non-qualified stock options, performance shares, incentive stock options and performance units. Pursuant to terms of the LTIP, we have issued to eligible participants restricted stock units (“RSUs”), performance share awards (“PSAs”) and stock only stock appreciation rights. In 2021, we issued awards of RSUs and PSAs under our LTIP. Approximately 40% of fair value of the awards granted in 2021 were RSUs, which vest based on the passage of time, generally over a three-year period or in certain instances the RSUs were issued with five-year cliff vesting. In addition, some awards vest over one year or less depending upon the retirement eligibility of the grantees in the LTIP. The remaining 60% of the fair value of the awards granted in 2021 were PSAs. The PSAs awarded in 2021 vest based on either the achievement of a cumulative financial performance target covering a two-year period followed by an additional one-year service period or based on the three-year total shareholder return relative to a broad market index. The performance measures include a minimum, target and maximum performance level providing the grantees an opportunity to receive more or less shares than targeted depending on actual financial performance. For RSUs, the grant date fair value of the awards, or the closing price per common share on the date of the award, is used to determine the amount of expense to be recognized over the applicable service period. For PSAs, the grant date fair value is estimated using a lattice model. The significant inputs include the stock price, volatility, dividend yield, and risk-free rate of return. Settlement of RSUs and PSAs will be made in shares of our common stock currently held in treasury. The following table summarizes RSU and PSA activity during periods indicated: Units 2021 2020 Balance at January 1, 1,071,652 896,463 Granted 287,805 294,315 Forfeited (90,355 ) (17,455 ) Shares delivered (123,038 ) (78,509 ) Balance at March 31, 1,146,064 1,094,814 The amount granted in 2021 and 2020 includes 161,453 and 168,663, respectively, of PSAs exclusive of reinvested dividends.

The effective income tax rate for the period ended March 31, 2021, was unfavorably impacted primarily by $4.5 million in operating losses in the U.S. which generated no tax benefit and a $0.5 million impact attributable to a local income tax rate increase in Germany. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, we recorded a decrease in our valuation allowance of $1.0 million against our net deferred tax assets. In assessing the need for a valuation allowance, management considers all available positive and negative evidence in its analysis. Based on this analysis, we recorded a valuation allowance for the portion of deferred tax assets where the weight of the evidence indicated it is more likely than not that the deferred assets will not be realized. As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we had $47.2 million and $46.3 million, respectively, of gross unrecognized tax benefits. As of March 31, 2021, if such benefits were to be recognized, approximately $36.7 million would be recorded as a component of income tax expense, thereby affecting our effective tax rate. We, or one of our subsidiaries, file income tax returns with the United States Internal Revenue Service, as well as various state and foreign authorities. The following table summarizes, by major jurisdiction, tax years that remain subject to examination: Open Tax Years Jurisdiction Examinations not yet initiated Examinations in progress United States Federal 2014 - 2015; 2017 - 2020 N/A State 2016 - 2020 2015 - 2018 Canada (1) 2013 - 2018; 2020 2019 Germany (1) 2016 - 2020 N/A France 2018 - 2020 N/A United Kingdom 2019 - 2020 N/A Philippines 2019 - 2020 2018 (1) includes provincial or similar local jurisdictions, as applicable The amount of income taxes we pay is subject to ongoing audits by federal, state and foreign tax authorities, which often result in proposed assessments. Management performs a comprehensive review of its global tax positions on a quarterly basis and accrues amounts for uncertain tax positions. Based on these reviews and the result of discussions and resolutions of matters with certain tax authorities and the closure of tax years subject to tax audit, reserves are adjusted as necessary. However, future results may include favorable or unfavorable adjustments to our estimated tax liabilities in the period the assessments are determined or resolved or as such statutes are closed. Due to potential for resolution of federal, state and foreign examinations, and the lapse of various statutes of limitation, it is reasonably possible our gross unrecognized tax benefits balance may decrease within the next twelve months by a range of zero to $6.3 million. Substantially all of this range relates to tax positions taken in the U.S. We recognize interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions as income tax expense. The following table summarizes information included in continuing operations related to interest on uncertain tax positions: Three months ended March 31 In millions 2021 2020 Interest expense (income) $ 0.2 $ 0.1 March 31 December 31 2021 2020 Accrued interest payable $ 2.0 $ 1.8 |

Leases [Abstract] | |
Leases | 13 . LEASES We enter into a variety of arrangements in which we are the lessee for the use of automobiles, forklifts and other production equipment, production facilities, warehouses and office space. We determine if an arrangement contains a lease at inception. All our lease arrangements are operating leases and are recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheet under the caption “Other assets” and the lease obligation is under “Other current liabilities” and “Other long-term liabilities.” We currently do not have any finance leases. Operating lease right of use (“ROU”) assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date. ROU assets also include any initial direct costs incurred and any lease payments made at or before the lease commencement date, less lease incentives received. We use our incremental borrowing rate based on information available at the commencement date in determining the lease liabilities as our leases generally do not provide an implicit rate. Lease terms may include options to extend or terminate when we are reasonably certain that the option will be exercised. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The following table sets forth information related to our leases as of the periods indicated.

The proceeds of the Term Loan due Feb. 2024 were used to redeem in its entirety the 5.375% Notes. The principal amount of the Term Loan amortizes in consecutive quarterly installments of principal, with each such quarterly installment to be in an amount equal to 1.25% of the Term Loan funded, commencing on July 1, 2019 and continuing quarterly thereafter. For all U.S. dollar denominated borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility, the borrowing rate is, at our option, either, (a) the bank’s base rate which is equal to the greater of i) the prime rate; ii) the federal funds rate plus 50 basis points; or iii) the Euro-rate plus 100 basis points plus an applicable spread over either i), ii) or iii) ranging from 12.5 basis points to 100 basis points based on the Company’s leverage ratio and its corporate credit ratings determined by Standard & Poor’s Rating Services and Moody’s Investor Service, Inc. (the “Corporate Credit Rating”); or (b) the Euro-rate plus an applicable margin ranging from 112.5 basis points to 200 basis points based on the Company’s leverage ratio and the Corporate Credit Rating. For non-US dollar denominated borrowings, the borrowing rate is, at our option, based on (b) above or for Euro denominated borrowings, the Euro Interbank Offering Rate (“EURIBOR”) plus an applicable margin ranging from 112.5 basis points to 200 basis points based on the Company’s leverage ratio and the Corporate Credit Rating. The Credit Agreement contains a number of customary covenants for financings of this type that, among other things, restrict our ability to dispose of or create liens on assets, incur additional indebtedness, repay other indebtedness, limits certain intercompany financing arrangements, make acquisitions and engage in mergers or consolidations. We are also required to comply with specified financial tests and ratios including: i) maximum net debt to EBITDA ratio (the “leverage ratio”); and ii) a consolidated EBITDA to interest expense ratio. The most restrictive of our covenants is a maximum leverage ratio of 4.0x provided that such ratio increases to 4.5x during the period of four fiscal quarters immediately following a material acquisition. As of March 31, 2021, the leverage ratio, as calculated in accordance with the definition in our Credit Agreement, was 1.8x. A breach of these requirements would give rise to certain remedies under the Revolving Credit Facility, among which are the termination of the agreement and accelerated repayment of the outstanding borrowings plus accrued and unpaid interest under the Credit Agreement. All remaining principal outstanding and accrued interest under the Credit Agreement will be due and payable on February 8, 2024. Glatfelter Gernsbach GmbH (“Gernsbach”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of ours, entered into a series of borrowing agreements with IKB Deutsche Industriebank AG, Düsseldorf (“IKB”) as summarized below: Amounts in thousands Original Principal Interest Rate Maturity Borrowing date Apr. 11, 2013 € 42,700 2.05 % Mar. 2023 Sep. 4, 2014 10,000 2.40 % Jun. 2022 Oct. 10, 2015 2,608 1.55 % Sep. 2025 Apr. 26, 2016 10,000 1.30 % Jun. 2023 May 4, 2016 7,195 1.55 % Sep. 2025 Each of the borrowings require quarterly repayments of principal and interest and provide for representations, warranties and covenants customary for financings of these types. The financial covenants contained in each of the IKB loans, which relate to the minimum ratio of consolidated EBITDA to consolidated interest expense and the maximum ratio of consolidated total net debt to consolidated adjusted EBITDA, are calculated by reference to our Credit Agreement. Glatfelter Corporation guarantees all debt obligations of its subsidiaries. All such obligations are recorded in these condensed consolidated financial statements. Letters of credit issued to us by certain financial institutions totaled $7.3 million as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020. The letters of credit, which reduce amounts available under our Revolving Credit Facility, primarily provide financial assurances for the benefit of certain state workers compensation insurance agencies in conjunction with our self-insurance program and for performance of certain remediation activity related to the Fox River matter. We bear the credit risk on this amount to the extent that we do not comply with the provisions of certain agreements. No amounts are outstanding under the letters of credit. |

Derivative Instruments And Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Financial Derivatives and Hedging Activities | 1 7 . FINANCIAL DERIVATIVES AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES As part of our overall risk management practices, we enter into financial derivatives primarily designed to either i) hedge foreign currency risks associated with forecasted transactions (“cash flow hedges”); ii) mitigate the impact that changes in currency exchange rates have on intercompany financing transactions and foreign currency denominated receivables and payables (“foreign currency hedges”); or iii) convert variable-interest-rate debt to fixed rates. Derivatives Designated as Hedging Instruments - Cash Flow Hedges We use currency forward contracts as cash flow hedges to manage our exposure to fluctuations in the currency exchange rates on certain forecasted production costs. Currency forward contracts involve fixing the exchange for delivery of a specified amount of foreign currency on a specified date. As of March 31, 2021, the maturity of currency forward contracts ranged from one month to 18 months. We designate certain currency forward contracts as cash flow hedges of forecasted raw material purchases, certain production costs or capital expenditures with exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges of foreign exchange risk is deferred as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. With respect to hedges of forecasted raw material purchases or production costs, the amount deferred is subsequently reclassified into costs of products sold in the period that inventory produced using the hedged transaction affects earnings. For hedged capital expenditures, deferred gains or losses are reclassified and included in the historical cost of the capital asset and subsequently affect earnings as depreciation is recognized. We had the following outstanding derivatives that were used to hedge foreign exchange risks associated with forecasted transactions and designated as hedging instruments: In thousands March 31, 2021 December 31, 2020 Derivative Sell/Buy - sell notional Philippine Peso / Euro — 18,522 Euro / British Pound 17,219 18,638 U.S. Dollar / Euro — 1,041 Canadian Dollar / U.S. Dollar — 70 Sell/Buy - buy notional Euro / Philippine Peso 1,003,403 853,686 British Pound / Philippine Peso 1,006,093 1,081,791 Euro / U.S. Dollar 72,770 69,324 U.S. Dollar / Canadian Dollar 34,707 34,847 In October 2019, we entered into a €180 million notional value floating-to-fixed interest rate swap agreement with certain financial institutions. Under the terms of the swap, we will pay a fixed interest rate of the applicable margin plus 0.0395% on €180 million of the underlying variable rate term loan. We will receive the greater of 0.00% or EURIBOR. Derivatives Designated as Hedging Instruments – Net Investment Hedge The €220 million Term Loan discussed in Note 15 – “ Long-Term Debt” is designated as a net investment hedge of our Euro functional currency foreign subsidiaries. During the first three months of 2021, we recognized a pre-tax gain of $11.0 million and in the same period of 2020 a pre-tax gain of $5.9 million on the remeasurement of the term loan from changes in currency exchange rates. Such amounts are recorded as a component of Other Comprehensive Income (Loss). Derivatives Not Designated as Hedging Instruments - Foreign Currency Hedges We also entered into forward foreign exchange contracts to mitigate the impact changes in currency exchange rates have on balance sheet monetary assets and liabilities. None of these contracts are designated as hedges for financial accounting purposes and, accordingly, changes in value of the foreign exchange forward contracts and in the offsetting underlying on-balance-sheet transactions are reflected in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of income under the caption “Other, net.” The following sets forth derivatives used to mitigate the impact changes in currency exchange rates have on balance sheet monetary assets and liabilities: In thousands March 31, 2021 December 31, 2020 Derivative Sell/Buy - sell notional U.S. Dollar / British Pound 25,850 25,250 U.S. Dollar / Euro 250 — Euro / British Pound 500 600 British Pound / Euro 2,200 1,900 Sell/Buy - buy notional Euro / U.S. Dollar — 7,500 These contracts have maturities of one month from the date originally entered into. Fair Value Measurements The following table summarizes the fair values of derivative instruments for the period indicated and the line items in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets where the instruments are recorded: In thousands March 31, 2021 December 31, 2020 March 31, 2021 December 31, 2020 Prepaid Expenses and Other Other Balance sheet caption Current Assets Current Liabilities Designated as hedging: Forward foreign currency exchange contracts $ 1,876 $ 577 $ 406 $ 4,342 Interest rate swap — — 108 136 Not designated as hedging: Forward foreign currency exchange contracts $ 66 $ 456 $ 349 $ 118 The amounts set forth in the table above represent the net asset or liability giving effect to rights of offset with each counterparty. The effect of netting the amounts presented above did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial position. The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The fair values of the foreign exchange forward contracts are considered to be Level 2. Foreign currency forward contracts are valued using foreign currency forward and interest rate curves. The fair value of each contract is determined by comparing the contract rate to the forward rate and discounting to present value. Contracts in a gain position are recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheets under the caption “Prepaid expenses and other current assets” and the value of contracts in a loss position is recorded under the caption “Other current liabilities.” The following table summarizes the amount of income or (loss) from derivative instruments recognized in our results of operations for the periods indicated and the line items in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of income where the results are recorded: Three months ended March 31 In thousands 2021 2020 Designated as hedging: Forward foreign currency exchange contracts: Cost of products sold $ (24 ) $ 2,182 Interest expense 21 — Not designated as hedging: Forward foreign currency exchange contracts: Other – net $ 270 $ (619 ) The impact of activity not designated as hedging was substantially all offset by the remeasurement of the underlying on-balance-sheet item. A rollforward of fair value amounts recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), before taxes, is as follows: In thousands 2021 2020 Balance at January 1, $ (3,460 ) $ 5,859 Deferred gains (losses) on cash flow hedges 4,558 463 Reclassified to earnings 3 (2,182 ) Balance at March 31, $ 1,101 $ 4,140 We expect substantially all of the amounts recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income will be recorded in results of operations within the next 12 to 18 months and the amount ultimately recognized will vary depending on actual market rates. Credit risk related to derivative activity arises in the event the counterparty fails to meet its obligations to us. This exposure is generally limited to the amounts, if any, by which the counterparty’s obligations exceed our obligation to them. Our policy is to enter into contracts only with financial institutions which meet certain minimum credit ratings. |

Commitments And Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Commitments, Contingencies and Legal Proceedings | 18 . COMMITMENTS, CONTINGENCIES AND LEGAL PROCEEDINGS Fox River - Neenah, Wisconsin Background We have previously reported that we face liabilities associated with environmental claims arising out of the presence of polychlorinated biphenyls (“PCBs”) in sediments in the lower Fox River, on which our former Neenah facility was located, and in the Bay of Green Bay, Wisconsin (collectively, the “Site”). Since the early 1990s, the United States, the State of Wisconsin and two Indian tribes (collectively, the “Governments”) have pursued a cleanup of a 39-mile stretch of river from Little Lake Butte des Morts into Green Bay and natural resource damages (“NRDs”). The United States originally notified several entities that they were potentially responsible parties (“PRPs”); however, after giving effect to settlements reached with the Governments, the remaining PRPs exposed to continuing obligations to implement the remainder of the cleanup consist of us, Georgia-Pacific Consumer Products, L.P. (“Georgia-Pacific”) and NCR Corporation. The United States Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) has divided the Site into five “operable units”, including the most upstream portion of the Site on which our facility was located (“OU1”) and four downstream reaches of the river and bay (“OU2-5”). Over the past several years, we and certain other PRPs implemented and completed all remedial actions pursuant to applicable consent decrees or a Unilateral Administrative Order. In January 2019, we reached an agreement with the United States, the State of Wisconsin, and Georgia-Pacific to resolve all remaining claims among those parties. Under the Glatfelter consent decree, we are primarily responsible for long-term monitoring and maintenance in OU2-OU4a and for reimbursement of government oversight costs paid after October 2018. Finally, we remain responsible for our obligation to continue long-term monitoring and maintenance under our OU1 consent decree. Cost estimates Our remaining obligations under the OU1 consent decree consist of long-term monitoring and maintenance. Furthermore, we are primarily responsible for long term monitoring and maintenance in OU2-OU4a over a period of at least 30 years. The monitoring activities consist of, among others, testing fish tissue, sampling water quality and sediment, and inspections of the engineered caps. In 2018, we entered into a fixed-price, 30-year agreement with a third party for the performance of all of our monitoring and maintenance obligations in OU1 through OU4a with limited exceptions, such as, for extraordinary amounts of cap maintenance or replacement. Our obligation under this agreement is included in our total reserve for the Site. We are obligated to make the regular payments under that fixed-price contract until the remaining amount due is less than the OU1 escrow account balance. We are permitted to pay for this contract using the remaining balance of the escrow account established by us and WTM I Company (“WTM I”) another PRP, under the OU1 consent decree during any period that the balance in the escrow account exceeds the amount due under our fixed-price contract. As of March 31, 2021, the balance in the escrow is less than amounts due under the fixed-price contract by approximately $1.6 million. Our obligation to pay this difference is secured by a letter of credit At March 31, 2021, the escrow account balance totaled $8.9 million which is included in the condensed consolidated balance sheet under the caption “Other assets.” Under the consent decree, we are responsible for reimbursement of government oversight costs paid from October 2018 and later over approximately the next 30 years. We anticipate that oversight costs will decline as activities at the site transition from remediation to long-term monitoring and maintenance. Reserves for the Site Our reserve for past and future government oversight costs and long-term monitoring and maintenance is set forth below: Three months ended March 31 In thousands 2021 2020 Balance at January 1, $ 18,455 $ 21,870 Payments (420 ) (131 ) Accretion 51 52 Balance at March 31, $ 18,086 $ 21,791 The payments set forth above represent amounts due under the long-term monitoring and maintenance agreement. With respect to our total reserve for the Fox River, $3.6 million is recorded in the accompanying March 31, 2021 condensed consolidated balance sheet under the caption “Environmental liabilities” and the remaining $14.5 million is recorded under the caption “Other long-term liabilities.” Range of Reasonably Possible Outcomes Based on our analysis of all available information, including but not limited to decisions of the courts, official documents such as records of decision, discussions with legal counsel, cost estimates for future monitoring and maintenance and other post-remediation costs to be performed at the Site, we do not believe that our costs associated with the Fox River matter could exceed the aggregate amounts accrued by a material amount. |

Segments Results of individual operating segments are presented based on our management accounting practices and management structure. There is no comprehensive, authoritative body of guidance for management accounting equivalent to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; therefore, the financial results of individual segments are not necessarily comparable with similar information for any other company. The management accounting process uses assumptions and allocations to measure performance of the segments. Methodologies are refined from time to time as management accounting practices are enhanced and businesses change. The costs incurred by support areas not directly aligned with the segment are allocated primarily based on an estimated utilization of support area services or are included in “Other and Unallocated” in the table set forth above. Management evaluates results of operations of the operating segments before certain corporate level costs and the effects of certain gains or losses not considered to be related to the core business operations. Management believes that this is a more meaningful representation of the operating performance of its core businesses, the profitability of the segments and the extent of cash flow generated from these core operations. Such amounts are presented under the caption “Other and Unallocated.” In the evaluation of operating segments results, management does not use any measures of total assets. This presentation is aligned with the management and operating structure of our company. It is also on this basis that the Company’s performance is evaluated internally and by the Company’s Board of Directors. |

Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements (“financial statements”) include the accounts of Glatfelter and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. We prepared these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“generally accepted accounting principles” or “GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission pertaining to interim financial statements. In our opinion, the financial statements reflect all normal, recurring adjustments needed to present fairly our results for the interim periods. When preparing these financial statements, we have assumed you have read the audited consolidated financial statements included in our 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K. |
Discontinued Operations | Discontinued Operations The results of operations and cash flows of our former Specialty Papers business have been classified as discontinued operations for all periods presented in the condensed consolidated statements of income. |
Accounting Estimates | Accounting Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingencies as of the balance sheet date and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management believes the estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of these financial statements are reasonable, based upon currently available facts and known circumstances, but recognizes actual results may differ from those estimates and assumptions. |
