ShiveClean at APP leads to excellent refiner performance
Oct 6, 2014
When Asia Pulp & Paper (APP) decided to install a new BCTMP (bleached chemi-thermomechanical pulp) line at its Guangxi Jingui pulp and paper mill, it turned to Valmet.

These segment patterns are helping APP Guangxi Jingui achieve the longest segment lifetime in China: more than 3,000 hours on several occasions, with a record of 3,200 hours.
