Positive development in the fiber markets and the ongoing pulp mill capacity investments drive Kemira's investments in bleaching chemical capacity.
Kemira has started a pre engineering study for additional capacity in the Nordics in order to invest in new production lines in Finland and debottleneck the existing units.
Kemira has several bleaching chemical production units in Europe; Äetsä, Joutseno and Oulu in Finland, Helsingborg in Sweden and Europoort in Netherlands.
