Oct 04, 2014. /Lesprom Network/. West Midlands-based merchant and convertor Middleton Paper and its paper merchanting division, Vision Paper and Board, announced a multi-million pound investment in new equipment. The main acquisition will be a brand new state-of-the-art Pasaban 1850 sheeter due to be installed in March 2015, as the company said in the press release received by Lesprom Network.

This new installation will be the third brand new sheeter purchased by the company over the last ten years.

As a result of this initiative the packaging board and large format sector will become the main focus point for Middleton Paper’s ambitious plans for growth. The sheeting capability will be greatly enhanced and sizes from 300 x 310mm up to 1850 x 2200mm will be readily available in a substance range from 40 – 600gsm.

The new sheeter, along with the upgrades to existing sheeters, will provide the most advanced sheeting accuracy technology across all operations.
