Yves Bailly: “Our company is writing the first chapter of a new story. As the leader in a market that has been in structural decline for many years – the newsprint market – we decided in 2020 to diversify into the containerboard market. To achieve this, we are investing over €300 million to transform our facilities, including one of our two paper machines.
At the same time, we are still working to remain one of the leaders in our historic market by adapting to its changing conditions. Since the beginning of 2023, our paper has been made exclusively from recycled fibres. This will also be the case for our containerboard.
Meanwhile, we are stepping up our efforts to promote the green transition. We are working with GVE to build a biomass cogeneration boiler to the north of our site, and we are installing a second biogas production unit to produce renewable energy and reduce our reliance on fossil fuels.”
