The coating machines at the Bielefeld site
Mitsubishi HiTec Paper is investing almost €5 million in technical production equipment and increasing the energy efficiency of processes whilst also investing in more staff.
The number of personnel has been increased in both sales and research and development departments. The manufacturer of coated specialty papers is continuing along its path of optimisation of existing product lines, focusing on innovative new products and the resulting closeness to its markets.
The investment of €3.2 million in technical production equipment refers to the coating machines in Bielefeld. The objectives of this investment are both improvements in quality and productivity as well as a more flexible use of the highly advanced coating systems with different parts of the product range.
Investments in both locations in Bielefeld and Flensburg will allow a more energy efficient use of process cooling, thus supporting the company’s goal of protecting the environment. A total of €1.6 million has been invested in new cooling systems.
