Energy efficiency upgrade for Mondi’s Dynäs mill

Mondi is upgrading its Dynäs pulp and paper mill in Sweden to improve energy and production efficiency.

The project will also raise the overall environmental performance of the mill, says Mondi, positioning it well to continue meeting customer demand for sustainable paper and paper-based packaging.

Part of Mondi’s flexible packaging business, the Dynäs mill produces high-quality sack and speciality kraft papers, used for a variety of paper-based packaging for industrial and consumer industries.

Also part of the work is a new cooking plant and along with upgrades will also further reduce air and water emissions, and result in better wood utilisation at the mill.

Roman Senecky, operations chief at Mondi Kraft Paper, said: “The modernisation programme at Dynäs represents a significant investment in the future of this well-established mill. By producing sustainable sack and speciality kraft paper, we continue to contribute to our MAP2030 goals and meet customer demand with innovative solutions such as Advantage StretchWrap, an alternative to plastic film pallet wrapping, and Advantage MF EcoComp, used for high-strength packaging like paper bags for wet organic household waste. The mill supplies paper across Europe and plays an important role in the local community.”
