It was a picture-perfect start!
After a six-week conversion period, the first paper ran off paper machine 3 in Fulda again at 2:46 p.m. on March 27, 2024.
The extensive measures to upgrade PM 3 included the extensive renovation of the pre-dryer section, including heat recovery and the dryer hood. In addition, the reel cutter was retrofitted.
Jass is a pioneer. In line with this principle, we see the innovations on PM 3 as an important building block for our future orientation: Not only are we producing more paper, but we also have significantly lower specific energy requirements and reduced maintenance costs. This reduces the burden on the environment and also places less strain on our employees.
We are delighted that the project has run so smoothly and safely: we are proud of the performance of our Jass team and our suppliers and would like to thank everyone involved in the conversion for their tireless and successful efforts!
