Smurfit Kappa Group, Ireland, reports that the modernization of its mill in Etten-Leur, the Netherlands, and its integration with the company's nearby Oudenbosch facility, is now complete. There is now a single plant named Smurfit Kappa ELCORR (formerly known as Smurfit Kappa Oudenbosch Golfkarton) that manufactures corrugated board packaging throughout the Benelux. A single corrugator at the ELCORR factory will produce 150 million square meters of packaging annually, made possible by the facility's combination of an advanced level of automation, its unique scale, and a highly skilled workforce, Smurfit Kappa says.
