M-real, Finland, has completed the rebuild at its M-real Kemi linerboard mill in Finland on schedule. The rebuild will enable further development of coated kraftliners with superior printability.

"Attractive packaging provides significant competitive advantage in retail business. As a result, brand owners as well as printers and converters are carefully examining the linerboard they use for corrugated packaging. Quality of print results combined with sustainability are the major drivers on their route to success," said Mika Joukio, SVP and head of M-real Consumer Packaging.

M-real has invested EUR 16 million in upgrading the coating section at the mill. The M-real kraftliner range includes products suitable for flexo, offset, inkjet, and screen printing.
