As part of ongoing product development activities, a new dilution headbox installed on the BM3 machine in June 2014, can deliver the required paperboard thickness by using up to 10% less substance depending on grade.
This means that from January 2015, Pankaboard customers will get more square meters per ordered ton, a real cost-saving. The BM3 machine produces a wide range of high quality uncoated paperboards suitable for a variety of end-uses:
- PankaMax is used in various laminates for food and display applications.
- PankaDisc is used for coasters and food underlay's.
- PankaSeal is used for cap seal applications.
All products are made of 100% natural virgin fibres, certified by ISEGA for direct food contact and available from a mill with PEFC & FSC certified chain of custody accreditation.
Christer Nordman, Vice President Sales & Marketing, comments: "We will be introducing the new specifications for the production of PankaDisc and PankaMax in January 2015 and will extend these to PankaSeal in February."
Pankaboard is a world leader in virgin-fibre, high substance, coated folding boxboards and uncoated speciality boards.
