Mitsubishi HiTec Paper is investing almost five million Euros in technical production equipment and the optimisation of energy processes. At the same time personnel has been increased both in sales and in research and development.
The investment of 3.2m Euro in technical production equipment refers to the optimisation of the coating machines in Bielefeld. The objectives of this investment are both improvements in quality and productivity as well as more flexibility in utilisation of the coating systems for several product ranges including papers for digital inkjet wide-format print.
The optimisation of energy processes is being achieved by investing a total of 1.6m Euro in new cooling systems. Investments in both locations in Bielefeld and Flensburg allow more energy efficient use of process cooling, thus supporting the company's goal of protecting the environment.
