19 November 2024

Mondi has announced the start-up of its new extrusion line at the Štĕti mill in the Czech Republic. The project was announced last year and also includes the construction of a new production building with coating and slitting machinery.

Mondi says that the project allows for an expansion of its capacity for Functional Barrier papers and other high-quality coated papers with barrier properties. Application of these papers range from food and non-food contact packaging to industrial solutions such as case linings for solid board and barrier liners for corrugated case materials.

The integrated pulp and paper mill in Štětí runs two fibre lines for bleached and unbleached pulp.as well as five paper machines, which make woodfree uncoated paper, corrugated case material, and kraft and sack kraft paper. Last year, Mondi ordered a new 210,000 tpy sack kraft paper machine for the site, which is scheduled to start up in 2025.
