Graz, Austria, and Helsinki, Finland, 13 April 2011 -- International technology Group Andritz has received an order from Holmen AB’s subsidiary Iggesund Paperboard Ltd. to deliver a biomass boiler island for Iggesund Paperboard (Workington) Ltd. in Cumbria, United Kingdom. Commissioning and start-up of the boiler are scheduled for April 2013.

According to Holmen, the new biofuel boiler will substantially reduce energy costs and boost the paperboard mill’s competitiveness.

The boiler’s design is based on Andritz’s well-proven bubbling fluidized bed technology combining high fuel efficiency with excellent environmental performance.
