installation stages in the first quarter this year. The machine, which will be
named PM 7, is supposed to come online in summer next year, a company

The new PM will help Lecta improve the integration at the Zaragoza mill, which already houses the firm's only pulp mill as well as two paper machines. PM 4 has a capacity of 160,000 tonnes/yr of coated woodfree paper and PM 6 can make some 30,000 tonnes/yr of base paper for specialty grades.
Uranga mill to be closed: As part of this project, Lecta has decided to shut down its Uranga mill outside of Tolosa in northern Spain and concentrate production at the Zaragoza mill.
