Within our scope on the Shotton Mill Project, the works are currently being undertaken by ENKA in the UK for Shotton Mill Limited. Shotton Mill Limited, owned by Modern Karton/EREN Holding, one of the biggest producers of paper, cardboard, and corrugated packaging products in the sector, continues to make significant progress towards completion.
In Phase 1 of the Project, a new containerboard manufacturing facility is being constructed, including a new paper mill building, warehouse and dispatch area, chemical building, combined heat and power (CHP) building, water treatment plant (WTP), effluent treatment plant (ETP), recycled fibre building (RCF), recovered paper building (RCP), and pipe bridges.
A substantial portion of the Project has been completed by the end of May 2026. The remaining works are currently ongoing and progressing at a sustained and productive pace to ensure timely completion.
As of the end of May 2026, a total of 356 days and 550,000 person-hours were expended without any lost time incident (LTI).
With the Project now in its advanced stages, ENKA remains fully committed to delivering the works within our scope at this landmark facility to the highest standards of quality, safety, and sustainability. The completion of Shotton Mill will represent one of the most significant industrial transformations in the UK in recent decades, strengthening the domestic circular economy, supporting the transition to cleaner energy, and creating hundreds of skilled jobs in North Wales.
