A Valmet Case Study
Suzano, the world's largest pulp producer and a leader in Brazil's toilet paper segment, sought to expand its operational capacity and consolidate its position in the consumer goods market. To meet the growing demand for high-quality tissue with a reduced environmental footprint, Suzano partnered with Valmet for a complete production solution at its new mill in Southeast Brazil.
Valmet implemented a complete solution featuring its Advantage DCT 200 tissue machine and two Perini Constellation S8 converting lines. The project was a major success, with operations starting ahead of schedule; one converting line started up 65 days early and reached a 72.3% productivity rate within hours. The new mill gives Suzano an annual capacity of 60,000 tons of tissue, enabling it to produce high-quality products efficiently and sustainably with low operating costs. Valmet's technology was essential to the project's success, strengthening the partnership between the two companies.
