Koehler Paper Celebrates Anniversary as Production Line 2 Hits a Milestone

Koehler Paper now has the opportunity to celebrate an unusual birthday at the end of this year. Production line 2, consisting of paper machine 2 and coating machine 2, was put into operation at the Kehl site at the end of 2001. Paper machine 2 is used exclusively for the production of thermal paper. With a length of 123 meters, the machine is longer than a soccer field. It is also the fastest thermal paper machine in the world, and is known for coupling its speed with astoundingly consistent quality. This all makes it possible to use it to produce more than 1 million checkout rolls a day, with these slips being found everywhere across the world. Paper machine 2 is the reason why Koehler Paper is so successful in the thermal paper market, as it enabled the company to produce lightweight thermal paper with grammages of less than 50 gsm. “Koehler pioneered lightweight thermal paper for POS with grammages of 48 gsm and less – that transformed the market. Truth is, the machine was predestined to make lightweight thermal paper to this very day,” says Willy Früh, Director Thermal Paper Division at Koehler Paper. “When we talk about thermal paper production, you could say we’ve been playing in the Champions League for 20 years now.

Orient Paper, Inc. Pre-announces Unaudited Preliminary Financial Results for the Third Quarter 2017

Zhenyong Liu, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Orient Paper, commented, "Our third quarter results largely reflected the impact of a government mandated temporary restriction on production volume that has been in place since November 2016. Total revenue decreased by 10.6% year over year to $33.5 million on the back of a 36.1% drop in overall volume that more than offset the increase in blended average selling prices. Looking ahead, we expect the newly elected Communist Party of China leaders to continue to promulgate rules and regulations on environmental protection that could lead to government-mandated temporary restriction or suspension on paper production from time-to-time, leading to significant changes in pricing and supply/demand balances."
