Toscotec Will Supply a Tissue Production Line to Yuen Foong Yu

Italian paper machinery manufacturer Toscotec will supply a tissue production line to Taiwan-based paper manufacturing company Yuen Foong Yu (YFY).

The machine will be installed at the company's mill located in Qingshui District in western Taichung City and will begin operation in the last quarter of 2015.

This is in-line with YFY's plans to invest close to $268m to set up several tissue paper machines at its mills in China and Taiwan over the next three years.

The delivery includes the stock preparation plant with the Toscotec technology TT SAF, water system, an AHEAD-1.5M tissue machine with double-layer headbox, jumbo suction press TT SuctionPressRoll-SPR1425 and Toscotec steel Yankee dryer TT SYD-18FT.

Toscotec will also supply the electrification and controls package, tissue machine auxiliaries like the steam heated hood, steam and condensate system and dust removal system by Toscotec's associate Milltech.

The new production line has a width of 3,60 m and a design speed of 1700 mpm and will produce 120 tons per day of high-quality facial, toilet and towel grade from 13,5 g/m2 to 23 g/m2 basis weight.

Officially established in 1950, YFY produces papers for industrial as well as home use. It features a fully integrated production chain and covers upstream, midstream and downstream operations which involve forestry, pulp, paper manufacturing, printing, packaging and design.

The company operates three mills in China in Yangzhou-Jangsu, Kunshan-Suzhou Jangsu and Beijing-Mafang with a total annual capacity of approximately 150,000 tons per year. In Taiwan, it operates two mills in ChingShui and Yangmei with a total annual capacity of about 74,000 tons per year.

It forms about 25% of the domestic market in Taiwan and is aiming at increasing its market share to 35% in the next three years.
