Stracel LWC PM Converting to Packaging

Metso will supply Blue Paper with a grade conversion rebuild of their paper machine at their mill site in Strasbourg, France. The target is to produce packaging materials on a paper machine that previously produced LWC, light weight coated paper, a grade that is suffering from a decline in demand. The start-up of the rebuilt machine is scheduled for the last quarter of 2013. The value of the order will not be disclosed.
