The scope of supply comprises all key equipment for the fiberline, including the following technological highlights:
- Two-stage impregnation system with outstanding MSD Impressafiners for efficient pre-treatment and optimum chemical impregnation of wood chips prior to refining
- High-consistency (HC) refining stage with two parallel ANDRITZ S2070 single-disc refiners for superior fiber properties and highest production flexibility
- Low-consistency (LC) refining stage with ANDRITZ TwinFlo refiners to develop optimal pulp strength at lowest shive content
