PULP AND PAPER WAKES UP IN NORTHERN CHINA

摘要

Northern China's pulp and paper industry woke up with Hebei Yongxin Paper kicking off its commercial run on a 400,000 tonne/yr recycled linerboard machine, PM 6, at its mill in Luannan County, Hebei Province, in northern China. With a total investment of RMB 880 million ($129 million), the new PM exceeds the mill's existing capacity: five recycled containerboard machines with a combined output of 300,000 tonnes/yr. With PM 6, Hebei Yongxin Paper is the largest containerboard producer in northern China. "The startup went very smoothly and it only took three hours to start up the machine thanks to Andritz's advanced technology and our good operation. We have every confidence that the new line will meet the growing demand in the northern part of China," says Wu San Luo, general manager of HebeiYongxin Paper.
