Valmet will supply the seventh tissue line delivery including an extensive automation package to Turkish tissue producer Hayat Kimya. The company has decided to invest in a second machine at their mill in Mersin, Turkey, to meet the increasing demand for their high-quality tissue products. The new line will add 70,000 tonnes of tissue to their current production of facial, toilet and towel tissue.
The order was included in Valmet’s orders received of the first quarter 2020. The value of the order will not be disclosed.
Hayat Kimya has followed their straight expansion plan by the installation of a new tissue machine every second year. Previously Valmet has delivered six Valmet Advantage DCT 200TS tissue production lines to Hayat Kimya’s mills in Turkey, Russia and Egypt. Valmet also conducted an extensive rebuild of the customer’s TM1 machine in Turkey during 2015.
“We have developed a great collaboration between Hayat and Valmet teams during the years, and we are happy to continue our long relationship also in this project. When everybody knows each other, the technology and the process, it is easy to achieve great results together,” says Lütfi Aydin, Director, Paper Group, Hayat Kimya.
