Valmet to supply automation technology to Stora Enso in Finland
Valmet has confirmed it will supply automation technology to Stora Enso’s Oulu Mill in Finland. The automation orders are related to Stora Enso’s paper machine (PM 7) grade conversion project delivered by Valmet, where PM 7 will be converted from a fine paper machine to run Kraftliner. The automation technology will be delivered for the start-up of the rebuilt PM 7 which is scheduled for the end of 2020.“We have had a long-term cooperation with Valmet in Oulu since 1991 and we are pleased to continue working together in this strategic project. We also value Valmet’s strong local presence here in Oulu,” says Ari Saarnio, Project Director, Stora Enso. “The conversion of Oulu Mill will enable Stora Enso to further improve its position in the growing packaging business and we are taking a major step forward in our transformation.”
