Sappi's Alfeld PM 2 also to produce lightweight liners

摘要

With the rebuild of Sappi's PM 2 in Alfeld, Germany, another machine is switching from making graphic paper to packaging paper. The machine in question is the world's largest paper machine making one-sided coated and machine glazed bleached kraft (MGBK) speciality paper from virgin fibre, according to Sappi. This paper will primarily be used to make packaging in the future. The investment will total €61 m, providing the market with a capacity of 135,000t.
