In January 2017, Mondi announced the expansion of its heavy-duty corrugated capabilities at the Mondi Simet plant near Poznań, Poland. On June 20, 2018, Mondi Simet offers a state-of-the-art 2.8-meter Fosber corrugator with three single facers. With speeds up to 400m per minute, the corrugator delivers up to seven-layer corrugated board at a flute range from E to ACA to the converting equipment, which was also expanded.
“Mondi Corrugated already enjoys a strong position in Poland with five plants in Szczecin, Bystrzyca Kłodzka, Dorohusk, Mszczonów and Świecie, but we needed a major hub to service the Greater Poland region and beyond,” Armand Schoonbrood, COO of Mondi Corrugated Packaging, said. “To address the growing needs of the Polish corrugated market, we installed the market’s most innovative corrugator, which helped quadruple Mondi Simet’s production capacity.”
Krzysztof Jakubowski, the plant managing director, said, “The expansion of Mondi Simet represents one of the biggest capital expenditure in the history of Mondi Corrugated Packaging. However, our story does not end here – we plan to expand our plant even further and reach an annual output capacity of 180-200 million square meters by 2020.”
