As planned, Stora Enso has shut down a paper machine at its Anjalakoski mills in Finland in order to adjust production to market developments and to concentrate production of book paper on one machine.
Production on PM 3 was discontinued on 28 November, Stora Enso told Euwid. It will take around 250,000 tpy of production capacity for printing paper from the market. Previously, the two paper machines at the mill produced magazine paper and newsprint in addition to book paper and had a combined capacity of 435,000 tpy.
At its Anjalakoski mill complex, consisting of the formerly separately named neighbouring Anjala (paper) and Ingerois (cartonboard) mills, Stora Enso has a remaining output capacity of 310,000 tpy of folding boxboard and around 180,000 tpy of printing paper following the closure of PM 3.
