Helsinki, Finland, 07 March 2011 -- Metso will supply a complete tissue production line to Jeesr Industries for their mill in Berrechid, Moracco, close to Casablanca. The line is scheduled to start up in the fourth quarter of 2012.
 
The value of the order will not be disclosed. The market value of a tissue production line of this type is in the range of EUR 15–20 million depending on the scope of the delivery and the production output. Most of the order is included in Paper and Fiber Technology’s first quarter orders received and the automation package in Energy and Environmental Technology’s first quarter orders received.

Metso’s delivery will include a complete production line with stock preparation equipment, a tissue machine, a rewinder, and wrapping equipment.
