Finnish technology company Valmet has announced an agreement to supply an advanced IQ quality control (QC) system for corrugators to Inter Eastern Container in Prachinburi, Thailand. Valmet will deliver IQ Warp Measurement, IQ Moisturiser with three spray booms, IQ Multipoint Moisture, and Microwave for moisture measurement, all featuring automatic closed-loop controls.  

The full system is engineered to control all types of corrugated board, aiming to reduce sheet warping, improve bonding, and maximise box plant performance. Delivery of the equipment is scheduled for completion in December this year.

Inter Eastern Container managing director Kittisak Rangnoktai said: “We believe that the Valmet IQ quality control system will improve the quality of our corrugated board and enhance the plant’s overall productivity.”

Valmet included the order in its second-quarter 2024 orders received. The financial terms of the deal have not been disclosed. Inter Eastern Container, a member of Inter Group Packaging, employs approximately 200 people.

The company aims to achieve carbon neutrality by 2029, as evidenced by its Carbon Footprint for Organization certification.

Valmet Southeast Asia automation systems solution sales manager Thossapon Arunsaengsuree said: “This is the first Valmet IQ quality control system delivery to Inter Eastern Container.

“As Valmet has experience and reference cases in Thailand, we are confident we can help the customer achieve the target to improve product quality.”

In July this year, Valmet secured an order to supply its IQ QC system for corrugators to Thai Containers Group’s plant in Rayong, Thailand.
