The new machine enables Mondi to meet the rising demand for paper-based flexible packaging while strengthening the Group’s vertically integrated Paper Bags business. It also supports the optimization of production efficiency across the Group’s entire kraft paper portfolio.
Mondi is committed to ensure a reliable supply of kraft paper to support customers in their transition to paper-based solutions. The paper machine strengthens the company’s position as a leader in sustainable packaging, offering a full range of kraft paper products from high strength to high porosity grades, for various applications such as construction and industrial bags.
“We are delighted to have started production on this paper machine. The project team did a fantastic job and ensured it was installed on time and in budget. The quality of the paper is exceptional, and we are impressed with how quickly we have been able to deliver paper that meets our customers expectations”, Roman Senecky, COO Kraft Paper, Mondi.
The start-up marks an important milestone in Mondi’s journey towards making all packaging solutions reusable, recyclable, or compostable, as part of its Mondi Action Plan 2030 sustainability commitments, and is testament to the company’s expertise and long-term vision for a truly circular economy.
