Arkhangelsk BM 2 in Russia is aiming higher in recycled packaging
Oct 7, 2019
After an extensive rebuild from Valmet, the Arkhangelsk BM 2 containerboard production line aims for improved kraftliner quality and production flexibility.
Our direction for the future is to go forward with lightweight recycled packaging. We invested in Valmet’s high technology and know-how to ensure smooth start-up and in order to be able to produce high-quality board right after the start-up. It is better to work with experienced experts with a good reputation and to ensure that you’ll get what you are paying for.”
