The line will recycle end-of-life fiberboards back into valuable fibers as new raw material for fiberboard production. It will be the first industrial-scale fiberboard recycling line in the world.

The dry fiberboard recycling line is based on continuous steam treatment with a special discharging system using the Andritz Steam-Ex discharger, which minimizes steam consumption and maintenance requirements. This allows continuous processing of fiberboard material with very low steam consumption and high runnability.

Start-up of the fiberboard recycling line is scheduled for the second quarter of 2025.
