Warping and runnability problems cured in Cartonajes Santorromán

May 4, 2016

Santorromán has a philosophy of constantly investing in infrastructure and technology for the manufacture of corrugated cartonboard and any product that can be made with it. This has led to many innovative products and a well deserved reputation for quality. Innovative products bring new challenges and when faced with a warping problem, Santorromán turned to Valmet for a solution.

The corrugator can now run at its maximum speed and the quality is better. The best recommendation is in-house from the converting machines where you can even hear that the printing machine is running better.”

Jesús Pérez Osma, technical manager
