C&S Paper, China, has brought a new 28,000 metric tpy tissue machine on-stream at its mill in Chengdu City, Sichuan Province. The new machine, supplied by Italy-based Toscotec, has a wire width of 3.6 meters and a design speed of 1,600 meters/min.

Another two identical units from Toscotec will come online soon at the company's mill in Jiangmen city, Guangdong province. The first of the two additional machines is expected to startup in December, and the second will come online early next year.

C&S Paper also will install four other tissue units that it plans to bring online in 2013, raising its total capacity to more than 520,000 metric tpy. Two of these four new tissue machines, with a combined capacity of 59,000 metric tpy, have already been ordered from Toscotec. These will be erected at the Chengdu site, with startup scheduled for the second half of 2013. One of the machines will have a trim width of 3.55 meters and a design speed of 1,650 meters/min, and will be able to produce tissue at a rate of 32,000 metric tpy. The other tissue machine, with a trim width of 2.85 meters and a design speed of 1,700 meters/min, will have a production capacity of 27,000 metric tpy.
