Shunfa Paper Fires up New TM in Fujian, China

China’s Shunfa Paper has started trial production on a new 15,000-metric tpy tissue machine at its sole mill in Wuping county, Longyan city, Fujian province. The unit churned out its first sheet of paper in mid-November. Provided by domestic supplier Guizhou Hengruichen Technology, the machine has a width of 3.9 m and a design speed of 700 m/min. The company has ordered an identical TM for the same site. Its startup is expected next year.
