Kuewait-based United Paper Industries will rebuild its No. 1 sack kraft, fluting, and test liner machine in the Shuaiba Industrial Area of Kuwait. PMT Italia (Italy) will conduct the major rebuild of PM 1, a 2.6-meter-wide machine that produces the three grades mainly from local OCC (old corrugated containers).
The project is expected to improve production capacity and paper strength by adding a new press section with ÆGO™FLX Shoe DP, a new ÆGO™Sizer P, and a new ÆGO™Reel C. Other parts of the machine will also be modernized.
With startup of this project, planned for the fourth quarter of 2013, PMT will have the first ÆGO™FLX Shoe DP unit in the Middle East.
