Valmet will supply an Advantage DCT 100TS tissue production line to Papel San Francisco in Mexico. The new TM 10 machine will be installed at the company's mill in Mexicali and the start-up is planned for the second quarter 2025.
The order was included in Valmet's orders received of the second quarter 2023. The value of the order will not be disclosed.
Papel San Francisco currently has five Valmet lines in operation, started up between 2006 and 2020. TM 9 is currently under delivery and will start up in 2024. The upcoming delivery of TM 10 in 2025 will mark a milestone for Valmet as it features the 100th ViscoNip press that Valmet has delivered to customers globally over the years. The press has been recognized among tissue producers for its unique flexibility, uniformity, energy saving capability and high-quality tissue paper.
“To meet the increasing demand of tissue products we need to grow our capacity. The previously installed tissue lines from Valmet have served us well and allow us to run at maximum speed to get the output we need. Our operators are familiar with the machine concept, and it is easy to operate. Therefore, it was a natural choice to select an Advantage DCT line again,” says Dario Palma y Meza Espinoza, Operational Director, Papel San Francisco.
“It has been an exciting experience to participate in Papel San Francisco’s impressive growth journey as a supplier. They always pay attention to details and expect the best. We are convinced that we will have another successful project together,” says Jan Larsson, Director of Sales, Tissue Mills, North America, Valmet.
