Metsä Board invests in finishing operations

Metsä Board mill

Metsä Board has announced it is investing in the finishing operations at its Kemi mill by modernising the board machine winder.

The investment will be implemented during the annual maintenance shutdown in October–November 2026. The move is designed to further strengthen the site’s position as a ‘world-leading’ supplier of coated white-top kraftliners.

“This winder modernisation strengthens our finishing operations and supports our ability to deliver consistent, high-quality products to our customers,” said Tomi Seppä, VP Kemi Board Mill. “At the same time, it improves operational stability and ensures dependable deliveries.”

Metsä Board Kemi has an annual production capacity of approximately 465,000 tonnes and is the world’s largest producer of coated white-top kraftliners. Its products are used as the top layer in corrugated packaging worldwide.
