Austria-headed international technology group Andritz AG (ANDRITZ) has announced that it has received an order from Wisewoods Co., Ltd to supply a second pressurized refining system to its mill in Phetchaburi, Thailand.
Wisewoods Co., Ltd is a renowned player in the wood panel industry for four decades and manufactures high-quality medium-density fibreboard (MDF) products for the Middle East and Asian region.
The new fiber preparation system will feature a capacity of 30 tonnes per hour and process rubberwood for the production of high-quality MDF board. The start-up of the system, the value of which has not been disclosed, is scheduled for the first half of 2024.
Our first line from ANDRITZ has been showing excellent performance since its installation in 2016. The new line will enable us to enlarge our production capacity significantly. In parallel, ANDRITZ’ technology ensures that we receive top fiber quality – a precondition for our MDF board to deliver lighter color and smoother surface properties, said Visarut Palarit, Deputy Director Wisewoods.
