ENKA signed a contract for the construction of a Paper Mill Factory on the Dee Estuary in Flintshire, North Wales for Shotton Mill Limited owned by Modern Karton/EREN Holding, one of the biggest manufacturers of paper, cardboard and corrugated packaging products in the sector.
The project construction site is bounded to the north, west and south by Weighbridge Road/A548. It is bounded to the south by an adjacent industrial site owned and operated by Tata Steel Limited. The River Dee is located approximately 1.1 km from the south of the site.
The location of the 1st phase of the planned project activities includes the paper production machinery, storage area and shipment area of the existing paper mill.
The conversion project will transform the site from paper production to cardboard, corrugated packaging and tissue paper production. The project entails decommissioning and demolition of existing structures and construction of the new facilities to accommodate new manufacturing equipment.
In Phase 1 of the project activities, a new cardboard factory will be constructed, including a new paper mill, warehouse and dispatch area, combined heat and power (CHP) building and effluent treatment plant.
