Stockholm, Sweden, 26 January 2012 -- Production of textile pulp at Södra Cell Mörrum has now begun. Under full operation, annual production is expected to amount to 170,000 metric tons, and the investment in Mörrum will give Södra competitive textile pulp production based on hardwood.
"We are focusing on textile pulp as this is a growing market to which we can supply a certified, renewable forest raw material," said Gunilla Saltin, president of Södra Cell.
"For Södra Cell Mörrum, this is an important step in the reinforcement of the profitability and competitiveness of the mill," said Magnus Olsson, site manager for Södra Cell Mörrum.
Södra's executive committee also has made a decision in principle about an appropriation limit for production of textile pulp on a further pulp line at one of the company's pulp mills. A definitive decision on a second textile pulp line at Södra will be made in 2012. |
