Palm’s new paper machine at its headquarters in Aalen was successfully started up on 4th July 2021. Due to several COVID-related problems, the start-up took place after some delay to the original plan.
The paper machine is already in continuous operation. Palm is already supplying customers with rolls from the new machine. The company says technical values already indicate excellent properties for the products manufactured on PM5.
The former paper mill with three older paper machines has recently been shut down. The paper machines have been sold for export to Bangladesh, where they will soon cover the increasing paper consumption of region. Dismantling of the machines and the old power plant is already in progress.
