When Sappi started the discussions with Valmet for a rebuild at their Maastricht Mill they wanted to improve the end-product quality, cut costs and add new products to their portfolio. Valmet’s unique three-layer headbox and metal belt calender have helped the mill to produce outstandingly white and bulky board, with excellent printability and surface properties.
