Metsä Tissue press release 18 August 2009
 
Metsä Tissue, the supplier of tissue and cooking papers and part of Metsäliitto
Group, has invested in three additional napkin machines including printing and
packaging equipment. The units were acquired from Herlitz PBS AG in Berlin. The
new lines allow the production of both plain deep colour napkins as well as
premium printed napkins. 
 
As the lines are similar to Metsä Tissue's existing converting lines, synergies
are thus available to further increase the flexibility and reliability of
supply. Metsä Tissue will also study new supply locations within its existing
mill network. 
 
"Increased flexibility in supply and production will enhance the possibilities
to meet customer, end-user and consumer expectations by being able to quickly
adopt the latest and future trends in table decoration. What is also important
for us is to offer a range of products designed to match the tastes of people
in different European regions and countries. Investments in developing our
brands and products will continue," comments Hannu Kottonen, CEO.
