In Vietnam, Minhan Paper JSC has successfully started up a new Old Corrugated Containers (OCC) line supplied by Austria-headed international technology major Andritz AG to its mill in Van Lam, Hung Yen Province.
Founded in 2020, Minhan Paper specializes in the production of corrugated paper, paperboard, and containerboard. This start-up strengthens Minhan’s position in the growing Vietnamese packaging market.
The OCC line has a design capacity of 700 tonnes per day and processes a mix of American OCC and Local OCC to produce high-quality testliner and corrugated medium paper.
This OCC line represents a key addition to our production capabilities. We appreciate the expertise and support provided by ANDRITZ throughout the project and are confident that it will contribute to our long-term growth and environmental goals, said Vu Hoang Viet, Director of Minhan Paper.
The ANDRITZ delivery includes a full stock preparation system from pulping to approach flow, featuring advanced fiber recovery, broke handling, and reject treatment, which comprises:
- a PrimeSolve LC system with advanced set-up and the latest detrasher rotor design for highly efficient reject removal and excellent slushing performance;
- a PrimeScreen X with state-of-the-art rotor design, enabling high screening efficiency, low power consumption, and superior stock quality with low fiber loss.
This successful start-up further reinforces ANDRITZ’s strong presence in Southeast Asia’s fiber industry.
