UPM
is now selling matt and glossy lightweight coated (LWC) paper sheets from its
Plattling mill in southeastern Germany.
After
closing the 320,000 tonne/yr Albbruck coated mechanical paper mill in
southwestern Germany at the end of January, UPM began transferring the
site's two sheeting lines to the Plattling facility. The construction work for
new buildings and the installation of the lines was wrapped up at the end of
May and the first saleable paper sheets were produced at the beginning of June,
UPM Plattling general manager Wolfgang Ohnesorg told PPI Europe.
