In March 2018, Hamburger Rieger GmbH will start the scheduled construction of its second paper machine at its Spremberg location.
The new plant’s commissioning is scheduled for summer 2020.
The planned product range includes white and brown corrugated base papers (testliner) based on 100% recycled paper. With a width of 7.80 metres, the machine will produce 500,000 tonnes of paper per year. For the preparation of white base materials an environmentally friendly deinking section will be installed. It combines innovative resource-conserving raw material processing and the paper machine’s patented mode of operation.
