The machine will be installed at the production line PM2 part of a mill owned by Xuan Mai Paper Co. Ltd. and located in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. The high-quality tissue grades that will be produced in the mill in 2024 will be made of either 100% virgin or 100% deinked pulp (DIP).

The tissue machine will have a design speed of 1,800 m/min, a width of 2.85 m and a design capacity of 72 admt/d. The suction pressure roll will be covered with a polysoft polyurethane cover for high-performance dewatering.

ANDRITZ will also deliver stock preparation and automation equipment, as well as process-, fan- and multistage-pumps and auxiliaries.
