Papcel will start production of machinery and equipment in Italy from September 01, 2015. It is the growing foreign demand for paper machines of larger widths what has made the company take this step, according to a press release from Papcel.

Papcel will produce rolls and other rotary machined products of large dimensions, Yankee rolls, and parts for headboxes of large dimensions and for working paper machine structures with a large dimension of over 5.000 mm. The production capacity is planned to be 5.000 standard hours in 2015 and will be increased to 25.000 standard hours in 2016.
