The extensive rebuild will assure the paper quality improvement onto high international newsprint standard. The scope includes the new PMT M4 Dilution Control Headbox, Fourdrinier, Press and Dryer sections modification and a new Pope Reel. The existing DCS system will be upgraded and the new QCS system with headbox dilution control, moisturizer and calliper control will be installed.
