Metsä Group invests in startup FineCell

Metsä Group has made its second Swedish investment in FineCell (FineCellOx AB), developer of the FineCell technology and producer of CellOx dry cellulose powder. The company will use the EUR 1 million seed funding to improve its material application know-how, engage with potential customers, and finalise the material needed for making an investment decision concerning a demo production facility. The funding round lead by Metsä Group’s innovation company Metsä Spring consists of a group of investors, including EIT InnoEnergy and the company’s founder.

The FineCell technology can turn pulp into added-value biomaterial that can be used both as a powder and as a water solution, i.e., a hydrogel. These can replace fossil-based chemicals in beauty and healthcare products, as well as in paints. FineCell is a spinout of the KTH Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm, Sweden.

Valmet to deliver diffuser rebuild to Billerud’s Skärblacka mill in Sweden

Valmet will deliver a complete atmospheric diffuser rebuild to Billerud’s Skärblacka mill in Sweden. The delivery is scheduled to take place in May 2024.

 

The order was included in Valmet’s orders received of the second quarter 2023. The value of the order will not be disclosed.

 

Skärblacka mill’s original washer was delivered by Valmet in 1973. The rebuild will secure the washer’s performance and availability for years to come and prepare the mill for future capacity increases.

“We have established a long-lasting relationship with Valmet and have learned to trust their expertise. We have confidence in Valmet’s technology and found their solution superior to the alternatives,” says Samuel Wirzén, Project Manager at Billerud’s Skärblacka mill.

“We are happy that Skärblacka chose Valmet to supply washer technology. We believe that our solution will be both valuable to the mill and prolong the lifespan of their machine,” says Lennart Montonen, Sales Manager, Pulp Solutions, EMEA Area at Valmet.

The rebuild will include a complete technology upgrade and an installation of a Valmet Atmospheric Diffuser Kit, leading to optimized washing and increased capacity.

Billerud provides paper and packaging materials made from virgin fiber – passionately committed to sustainability, quality, and customer value. The Skärblacka mill produces white machine glazed kraft paper, brown sack paper and fluting and runs two laboratories specialized in developing packaging for food and medical products.
