Valmet Oyj trade press release, June 4, 2024, at 9:30 a.m. EEST

Valmet is to deliver Dewatering Element Ceramics to Al Dhafra Paper Manufacturing Company’s paper mill in Abu Dhabi, the United Arab Emirates.

The order was included in Valmet's orders received of the first quarter 2024. The value of the order will not be disclosed. The delivery is scheduled for the second quarter of 2024.

The Valmet Dewatering Element Ceramics are made of wear-resistant material offering long and trouble-free operation and optimized dewatering in the forming section of the mill’s paper machine.

“We appreciate Valmet’s know-how and long experience in developing products and services for the pulp and paper industry. We are looking forward to cooperating with Valmet and eager to see the positive impact that the new dewatering elements have on our production,” says Mr J. Subramanyam, General Manager, Raw Materials & Procurements at Union Paper Mills and Al Dhafra Manufacturing Company in Abu Dhabi.

We believe this delivery will strengthen our cooperation with Al Dhafra mill, leading to new successful projects in the future,” says Luigi Lupi, Product Manager for paper process parts in the Services business line at Valmet.

The delivery continues the original equipment manufacturer legacy of Coldwater Seals, a global provider of consumables and services for the pulp and paper industry that Valmet acquired in 2022.
