Pulp, Paper & Board - Boosting usability, efficiency, and production reliability
Processes in the paper, board, and pulp industries require structures and equipment with high reliability, chemical resistance, and the ability to operate in continuous, heavy-duty conditions. Our manufacturing expertise covers critical components and systems throughout the process chain – from large pressure equipment to precise airflow control.
Our delivery portfolio includes structures for runnability and air-drying systems, combining dimensional accuracy, extensive material knowledge, and consistent quality in demanding size ranges.
High-pressure vessels and pressure equipment (PED, ASME), flue gas scrubbers, silencers, and heat exchangers (plate, tube, and hybrid constructions) are manufactured in compliance with strict standards and process requirements.
Overall, we offer the paper, pulp, and board industries a comprehensive manufacturing capability that supports process availability, efficiency, and operational reliability – from individual components to complete system assemblies.

CASE: Palm PM5
Project deliveries
We were involved in the Palm PM5 project at Papierfabrik Palm in Aalen-Neukochen, home to the world’s largest packaging board machine, featuring a web width of 11,700 mm. The machine is designed for a speed of 2,000 m/min and an annual production capacity of 750,000 tons.
Our scope of delivery included various components and systems critical to the machine’s operation, such as air dryers, the largest of which had a total weight exceeding 100 tons, runnability systems, and different types of heat exchangers. The project showcased our ability to provide high-precision, large-scale industrial solutions, meeting stringent technical and quality requirements in one of the most demanding paper production environments in the world.
Scope of delivery
• Air Dryers
• Runnability systems
• Heat Exchangers
CASE: OKI Phase 1
Project deliveries and lifecycle services
OKI Pulp & Paper Mill is APP’s pulp mill in South Sumatra, Indonesia. The mill is one of the largest in the world, having achieved multiple production records — for example, its 10.6-meter-wide drying machines are among the biggest globally.
In addition, the mill invests heavily in sustainability: biomass gasification and evaporation systems help save energy and reduce the use of fossil fuels.
Our delivery included air systems related to the airborne dryer, as well as commissioning and supervision tasks for the mobile production line used in site fabrication. Part of the components used in site fabrication were manufactured at our Pansio plant.
Scope of delivery
• Site fabrication and supervision for the pulp dryer’s components.
CASE: Arauco Sucuriú
Project deliveries and contract manufacturing
We participated in the Arauco Sucuriú project, one of the largest pulp mills in the world, with a production capacity of 3,500,000 t/y.
Our scope of delivery included air systems for the airborne dryer, various types of heat exchangers, and commissioning of a on-site mobile production line.
Additionally, we produced training videos for the operation of the production line. This project demonstrated our ability to deliver large-scale, technically demanding solutions in heavy industrial environments.
Scope of delivery
• Heat Exchangers
• Air dryer systems
