“This award is granted to Metso in recognition of its commitment and
investments on the technological development and services for the pulp and
paper customers and its collaboration to the sustainable growth of Brazil”, says Marcelo Motti, Metso Vice
President for Automation in South America. “Metso
solutions and services help to meet our customers’ needs, improving production
process efficiency and reducing raw material and energy consumption where
resources are becoming limited, as well as meeting the increasing challenges in
the operational cost chain.”
Metso lays great emphasis on a strong presence in every region and country the
company does business, investing in people and assets. Metso Service Centers
throughout Brazil
are a good example of this, allowing Metso to offer better service, be closer
to its customers and facilitate the company integration into the local
communities.
In 2013, one of the largest deliveries by Metso in South America was a contract

supply scope covers a cooking unit and fiber line, drying and baling machine,
evaporation, recovery boiler, caustification and lime furnace, including a
built-in automation solution and simulator for operational training in all
process areas.
