New OCC refining stategies for containerboard production
FY 2016-17
Summary
There is a new interest for the production of containerboards made of old corrugated container (OCC). Themarket for these products has growth potential which is not the case for a printing grade like newsprint. This iswhy many newsprint producers decided to convert their newsprint facilities into containerboard ones. AikawaFiber Technologies (AFT) wants to apply its FinebarTM refining segments in new ways that would allowcontainerboard producers to improve their packaging products. For AFT, this project could lead to improvesales for its refining segments.
