A.Celli Paper (Italy) this past week confirmed the start of a collaboration with the Portuguese Group The Navigator Company S.A. for the supply of a latest-generation rewinder model E-WIND® T200 for its facilities in Cacia, in the district of Aveiro, in Portugal.

The tissue rewinder, model E-WIND® T200, highly evolved from the point of view of design, has a 5,670-mm format and guarantees a maximum production speed of 2,000 m/min. It will be equipped with leading-edge technological innovations, including:

• Dust removal system with total enclosure closed hood, also covering unwinder stand units
• Latest bulk loss control system on winding and unwinding systems, which allows the lowest loss currently on the market
• Output sorting platform.

The machine, whose startup is scheduled for 2018 3Q, will allow the Portuguese group to produce very high quality papers.

This new investment by The Navigator Company is the latest of many demonstrations of the technological reliability of the most evolved generation of Tissue rewinders, model E-WIND.

 

The Navigator Company is one of Portugal’s strongest presences in the world, playing a structuring role for the national economy by vertically integrating its business model: applied research, forestry, cellulose pulp, renewable energy, paper, and tissue. In the pulp and paper industry, The Navigator Company was honored in June 2013 as the "Best Company in Europe" by the European Business Awards in the category "Business of the Year." The company’s production capacity and exports make it a driving force for Portugal’s economy, accounting for approximately 3% of all goods exported by the country, with turnover representing close to 1% of GDP.
