Kemira Starts up New Resins, Polymers Line for Tissue and Paper in Finland

Kemira, Finland, reports that it has successfully started a new strength resins and solution polymers production line in its paper chemical site (including tissue products) in Äetsä, Finland. The new production line was started in April 2015 and the ramp-up of the new production capacity has been successful, resulting in high product quality and performance, the company notes. 

The new plant serves Kemira’s customers in both paper and O&M segments in the Nordics, Western Russia, and Eastern European rim and strengthens its capabilities in the growth areas. Strength products will respond to the growing demand of tissue, packaging boards, and specialty papers.
