"We are pleased to cooperate with Voith in creating a world-class operation at our Paprinsa site," said Javier Farré, managing director. "The outsourcing of maintenance was decided after visiting other sites in Spain that convinced us of the benefits, performance, and customer satisfaction of Voith performance maintenance services, which will further contribute to our operational performance."
Voith offers worldwide flexible services for servicing and maintenance that can be specifically adapted to the customer's production and maintenance needs. The Resident Service contract with Paprinsa includes full responsibility for the maintenance business process targeting lower maintenance cost and a higher time efficiency.
To establish the correct starting point in the preparation phase, Papelera del Principado and Voith jointly conducted a number of in-depth investigations with the main focus on current maintenance processes, instituted HSE (safety, health and environmental) guidelines, and established the condition of installations onsite. Based on the results, the project team commonly defined the project objectives and the improvement expectations. In this project, Voith will do the maintenance management and take care of maintenance personnel demand.
Papelera del Principado S.A., Paprinsa, was founded in 1978 and started producing paperboard in 1980. With 100% recycled fiber, the mill is today producing 85.000 metric tpy of coated carton board for domestic and international markets.
