Piloting opportunities

We help our customers address some of the most challenging global megatrends and secure the future of their industries by providing comprehensive piloting opportunities. Pilot testing also supports the customers’ own innovation and development work and helps strengthen their competitiveness. Pilot trials at our facilities offer a cost-efficient and flexible way to test and evaluate new ideas, compared to real mill environments. 

From lab tests to mill-like piloting environments

We operate multiple pilot facilities for internal R&D and customer projects. Our piloting services cater to paper, board, tissue, pulp, and energy-producing customers. These services empower customers to enhance performance, compare process configurations, test materials, and optimize existing or new processes. Modern laboratories within the facilities provide reliable test data, enabling quick adjustments during pilot trials. Ultimately, pilot trials reduce uncertainties related to material changes and investments.

Close collaboration with our experienced experts

Our state-of-the-art pilot facilities come to life through the expertise of our dedicated teams. Customers can collaborate closely with our experts during trials at the facility. Additionally, remote trials are possible through online video monitoring, allowing us to demonstrate essential trial elements and keep customers informed about progress.
