PM 3 ‘Emma’ produced her first reel of recycled containerboard end of May, following a conversion that not only transformed the paper machine, but the entire site of Norske Skog Bruck. We built a new multifuel boiler, a new OCC plant, expanded the wastewater treatment plant.
And now we are producing Strato Testliner and Fluting! We are partly in the process of ramping up deliveries, partly we’re still testing our paper with dedicated customers throughout Europe. We are delighted to receive quite some positive feedback, particularly on the strengths of our products!
The next weeks will be about continuing to familiarize ourselves with the new installations and improve our processes. Till now we have predominantly focused on the heavier basis weights, as of 100 gsm. As of next week, we will start working on the lighter basis weights.
In other words, so far so good. A warm thank you to all our new customers, who have tested our products and are now starting to order more regular volumes – we’ll do our utmost to become one of your preferred suppliers in the near future!
