Rottneros is seeking a permit to produce an additional 15,000 tpy of pulp at its Vallvik Mill in Sweden. Rottneros CEO Carl-Johan Jonsson in his 2013 year-end report said that the Swedish market pulp producer has submitted an application for a permit to increase pulp production at Vallvik Mill.
“If the relevant public authorities grant their approval, we will get a permit to produce 255,000 tonnes per year. We currently have a temporary permit for 240,000 tonnes maximum per year, Jonsson said.
Vallvik Mill produces two grades of long-fiber sulphate pulp: fully bleached sulphate pulp, ECF (Elemental Chlorine Free) and unbleached sulphate pulp, UKP (Unbleached Kraft Pulp).
