Scheduled for start up in March 2007, the line includes a fibre-preparation system with a P62 Defibrator, single stage drying followed by double Z-Sifters, a Uniformer forming station and a pre-press.
The line will also be equipped with a 28m long continuous Metso Contipress with HighFlex inlet and complete press outfeed equipment.
The new MDF line is primarily designed to produce thin MDF, ranging from 2-8mm.
